I met you on a stormy weekend
You never meant to draw the line
I saw you once, you didn´t smile
Thought you needed my advice
But didn´t know it at the time

I called you in the dead of winter
You didn´t even hold the line
I´ve seen it all, the great decline
One more troubled state of mine
What´s so wrong? Why can´t you even try?

Hear me out now, a thousand miles ´round
That the sound of strangers breaking new ground
It´s the breakdown of a lifetime
Here we go now falling of the straight line
Lost in city lights

I know all about your little secrets
I´ve felt the chills and your regrets
I heard ´em all, yeah through the wall
While you never had a clue
And if you knew, what would you do?

Hear me out now, a thousand miles ´round
That the sound of strangers breaking new ground
It´s the breakdown of a lifetime
Here we go now falling of the straight line

I´m dreaming, I´m dreaming, we´re dreaming

Falling back in the days you were doing all right
If you´re set in your ways then you fade out of sight
When at first it felt wrong it soon became right
Now the cracks on the wall were a map of your life
The addiction is back and it´s heavy this time
Now you´re talking to the voices through the wall
Will you make it this time?

Hear me out now, a thousand miles ´round
That the sound of strangers breaking new ground
It´s the breakdown of a lifetime
Here we go now falling of the straight line

Cause I don´t wanna know
That´s the sound of strangers breaking new ground
Lost in city lights
Here we go now falling of the straight line
