What I Say and What I Mean Lyrics
Walking from the past
But I don't think I've said my goodbyes
Sometimes I just find
That they keep sneaking up from behind
Closing up the wounds
I suppose it's supposed to take some more time
Then why do I find
That we've closed every door in our lives?
'Cause I know you're the only one for me
That's standing in my sleep
Never going back and forth
I'm only going forward
That's what I keep saying
Never going back and forth
I'm only going back
That's what I mean
Something haunts my dreams
Don't know what it means
Itching at the scabs
Only makes my troubles run high
'Cause scratching in the sheets
Makes my bark much worse than my bite
Itching for a fight
As your nails are running over my spine
'Cause the doors are open
And they keep floating back to my mind
And I know you're the only one for me
That's standing in my dreams
Never going back and forth
I'm only going forward
That's what I keep saying
Never going back and forth
I'm only going back
That's what I mean
Something haunts my sleep
Don't know what it means
Never going back and forth
I'm only going forward
That's what I keep saying
Never going back and forth
I'm only going back
That's what I mean
My screws are loose
My noose is tight
I'm lost in back and forth
I'm in between
My screws are loose
My noose is tight
I'm lost in back and forth
I'm in between
But I don't think I've said my goodbyes
Sometimes I just find
That they keep sneaking up from behind
I suppose it's supposed to take some more time
Then why do I find
That we've closed every door in our lives?
That's standing in my sleep
I'm only going forward
That's what I keep saying
Never going back and forth
I'm only going back
That's what I mean
Don't know what it means
Only makes my troubles run high
'Cause scratching in the sheets
Makes my bark much worse than my bite
As your nails are running over my spine
'Cause the doors are open
And they keep floating back to my mind
That's standing in my dreams
I'm only going forward
That's what I keep saying
Never going back and forth
I'm only going back
That's what I mean
Don't know what it means
I'm only going forward
That's what I keep saying
Never going back and forth
I'm only going back
That's what I mean
My noose is tight
I'm lost in back and forth
I'm in between
My noose is tight
I'm lost in back and forth
I'm in between

Awsome first single from a great cd look forward to hearing more from you
i love this song. what a lovely voice.
this is SUCH a good song... it's basically about doing things you kknow are bad for you, but you do them anyway... like picking at scabs or running back to old boyfriends. Bad habits, pretty much. I SO know the feeling...
This song is so awesome! I feel like I can actually feel the singer's anxiety.
