[INTRO] I looked for the boy in the places he'd been Looked for the light where the night used to end Called into rooms that remembered my name They answered in echoes They sounded the same [VERSE 1] I came back carrying a key without teeth A pocket of promises nothing could keep The mirrors were faithful the memory lied I stood where he stood but he wasn't inside [REFRAIN] Somewhere somewhere I thought he was somewhere Somewhere somewhere there's got to be somewhere Somewhere somewhere I thought there was somewhere Somewhere somewhere there wasn't anywhere [VERSE 2] I mistook being haunted for having a home Mistook going back for somewhere to go I waited for magic to recognize me It looked through my eyes and saw somebody leave [BREAK] Pair of eyes paradise Pair of lies paralyzed Pair of dice one more try I threw every pair of dice They landed on their sides [INSTRUMENTAL] [REFRAIN — DISTANT / BREAKING APART] Somewhere somewhere I thought he was somewhere Somewhere somewhere I thought there was somewhere Somewhere— somewhere— there wasn't anywhere [SILENCE] [FINAL] There's no one behind me I'm waiting to be No vanished tomorrow still looking for me No map in the ashes No trick up the sleeve No magic left waiting Just me [PAUSE] Just me [OUTRO] Somewhere somewhere Still me
