I Was, You Weren't Lyrics - Duncan Browne

I've never yet come when you've been here and said that you haven't been 

I've never arrived and been blind to the things that I have seen 

I've never gone out coming in through the door 

I have known that the people I've passed haven't been there before 

You said that I'm dead but of shots I have heard no report 

And seen my release in a newsflash when I wasn't caught 

You tell me that darkness is daylight that's been painted black 

And I couldn't look forwards if my face was turned round to the back 

I knew that the lies that you told me weren't really the same 

As telling the truth and not knowing that lies were to blame 

So I asked of the I Ching if you would remember my face 

And it said you'd see through me, and I think maybe this is the case 

I heard someone thinking a lot of the noise that a silence makes 

And I knew then that going depends on the way that you faced 

If I hadn't come later, I should have arrived before now 

If I knew all the answers, I shouldn't be where I am now

You told me you'd be there if I ever really needed you 

I was and you weren't, you weren't and I was, where were you ? 

Did you hear me looking in, and I really can't understand why 

You were looking straight through me and I didn't reflect in your eye
