Almost Again Lyrics

So, you're leaving...
So, you're on your own...

Almost Again.. Almost Again.. Almost Again, I have...
State your reasons
So? ..You're all alone...

Almost Again... Almost Again... Almost Again, I have...

Sown,
AT THE SPEED OF SOUND I WILL BE FOUND
AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT I WILL BE SIGHTED

Almost Again.. Almost Again.. Almost Again, I have...

Sown,
AT THE SPEED OF SOUND

So, it's over...
Now, you're on your own...
Almost Again... Almost Again... Almost Again, I have...

Sown,
AT THE SPEED OF SOUND, I WILL BE FOUND
AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT, I WILL BE SIGHTED
AT THE SPEED OF SOUND
AT THE SPEED OF SOUND
AT THE SPEED OF SOUND

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Namaste

Maybe it's a guy trying to find love but can't. So he'll get into a relationship and then realize (even if he doesn't consciously know it) that this girl isn't for him. So he stops caring and the girl leaves him and he feels disappointed that she wasn't the one. So he goes into deep sadness and even anger. This speeds up the 'selection process' and reduces the time he actually cares about the relationship so the who cycle keeps getting shorter (Hence speed of light).

This song is amazingly great. It's either Devin being sarcastic or real about how alone he is sometimes. Being bi-polar, he most likely is feeling that way sometimes. I dunno. Great song though.
