I was standing in a lonesome room and on an on it went
Nothing ever happens anyway, the days have all been spent

But I brought hope for the dreams I sold you
When I told you the ways I’d hold you in your sleep
You were only trying to be reached

Now I’m standing in a crowded room and on and on it goes
Nothing ever happens anymore to anyone I know

But I caught hope for the dreams I sold you
When I told you the ways I’d hold you in my sleep
I was only trying to be reached

I was waiting for you to break it down for me
I was hoping that you would explain it all to me
I was seeking answers in everything I’d see
I was only trying, trying to be reached

When I sought hope for the dreams I sold you
When I told you the ways I’d hold you when we’d sleep
We were only trying to be reached, to be reached
