In Context Lyrics
Each one accepts their little part
So many words I can afford to give away
And I was expecting such a lot
All of the thoughts you had were not your own
Even the time you came was somebody else's time
You draw a line between the lines
Before we said anything
And you take away the context
As if that'll make me see sense
Compounding errors again and again
Some mistakes we make you wouldn't change
And I was expecting a change
I was waiting for a change
Abstracted from a little taste
Of air between hours stopped and waiting for us
A breath tired of waiting for you
A breath tired and waiting for you
Hi everyone - seeing other people's takes on the lyrics is pretty fascinating. Just for your enjoyment/amusement, here are the lyrics:
Everyone takes their place for you Each one accepts their little part So many words I can afford to give away And I was expecting such a lot
Oh, and you're a long way from home All of the thoughts you had were not your own Even the time you came was somebody else's time You draw a line between the lines
Don't you know that I wrote that Before we said anything And you take away the context As if that'll make me see sense
A point, a start (stop) to give away Compounding errors again and again Some mistakes we make you wouldn't change And I was expecting a change I was waiting for a change
I'm reminded of something I never knew Abstracted from a little taste Of air between hours stopped and waiting for us A breath tired of waiting for you A breath tired and waiting for you
Thanks! It really helps. Is this from the album booklet?

i think it's kind of looking back at confusing situations ?
i love this song.
this song is so interetsing to listen to. i like it lots.
A relationship that didn't end up the way that they wanted to is what this song means to me. Only the two people that this song are the ones that get the "context" of their relationship.
Think of it this way, each person has their own context, we get what we do, we get some parts from other people and thats what makes us whole. "Everyone takes their place for you, Each one accepts their little part"
This song is how one of them is far away from the other and without them together, things aren't really the same.
"If I would say anything And you take away the context And our lives weren't the same since"
After their relationship didn't work out, things just didn't work out the same for them.
"And you take away the context And our lives weren't the same since"
Minor corrections:
Everyone takes their place for you Each one accepts their little part So many words I can't afford to give away I was expecting such a law
Oh and you're a long way from home All of the thoughts you had were not your own Even the time you came was somebody else's time But you're alive between the lines
Did you know that I wrote down Before we said anything And you take away the context As if I don't make any same sense
The points start to give away Compounding errors again and again See mistakes we made and wouldn't change I was expecting a change I was expecting a change I was waiting for a change
I'm reminded of something I never knew Distracted from a little taste Of air between hours waiting for us A breath tired of waiting for you A breath trying and waiting for you
Did you know that I wrote down Before we said anything And you take away the context As if I don't make any same sense
