Unpersuaded Lyrics
I remember (Memory)
It was television (T.V.)
That was playing (Midnight)
On a stranger's Walkman (Headphones)
It was raining (Winter)
At the subway station (New York)
So I lingered (Waiting)
here in hesitation (Tension)
Because I was going away
And you were staying
I was going away
And you were staying
I was going away (Going away)
And you were staying (Going away)
You were swept away (Going away)
But unpersuaded
I remember (Recall)
A certain confrontation (Weapons)
You were scissors (Jagged)
I was paper (Fragile)
You were saying (Verbal)
There was nothing to say (Silent)
I was thinking (Mental)
That it didn't matter (Checkmate, voided, cancelled)
Because I was going away
And you were staying
I was going away
And you were staying
I was going away (Going away)
And you were staying (Going away)
You were swept away (Going away)
But unpersuaded
You weren't persuaded (This is closure)
It was television (T.V.)
That was playing (Midnight)
On a stranger's Walkman (Headphones)
It was raining (Winter)
At the subway station (New York)
So I lingered (Waiting)
here in hesitation (Tension)
And you were staying
I was going away
And you were staying
I was going away (Going away)
And you were staying (Going away)
You were swept away (Going away)
But unpersuaded
A certain confrontation (Weapons)
You were scissors (Jagged)
I was paper (Fragile)
You were saying (Verbal)
There was nothing to say (Silent)
I was thinking (Mental)
That it didn't matter (Checkmate, voided, cancelled)
And you were staying
I was going away
And you were staying
I was going away (Going away)
And you were staying (Going away)
You were swept away (Going away)
But unpersuaded
