Get Back

We’ve got to get back
To the way we used to be
We’ve got to step back
When you were you and I was me

Tonight
I see no one I know
And all these streaming people
Not one knows me and none of them are you

The light
It glows for no one now
You all could leave tomorrow
And what I know is anything can change my world

All that time together...
And all the time I was alone

We’ve got to get back
To the way we used to be
We’ve got to step back
When you were you and I was me

We’ve got to look back
To a world that can’t be sold
We’ve got to push back
Because we don’t do what we’re told

So now
I push the stone uphill
To justify my presence
But still I know there’s nowhere I belong

And then
The mirrors here are empty
No touch upon my skin
I turn my face up to the sun but it’s not there

There’s hardly anything to say now
There’s only what we have to do
There’s only one door left to close now
And only one night to live through

We’ve got to get back
To the way we used to be
We’ve got to step back
When you were you and I was me

We’ve got to look back
To a world that can’t be sold
We’ve got to push back
Because we don’t do what we’re told
