It came to the end
It seems you had heard
As we walked the city streets
You never said a word
When we finally sat down
Your eyes were full of spite
I was desperate, I was weak
I could not put up a fight
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
You were strangely less than pained
Then you were cold
Triumphant in your mind
Of the logic that you hold
You said no one would ever know
The love that we had shared
As I took my leave to go
It was clear that you didn't care
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
And I hear of your coming
And your going in the town
I hear stories of your smile
I hear stories of your frown
And the darkness can descend
We can relish all the pain
But I know that's what you love
'Cause you know I love the same
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
It seems you had heard
As we walked the city streets
You never said a word
When we finally sat down
Your eyes were full of spite
I was desperate, I was weak
I could not put up a fight
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
You were strangely less than pained
Then you were cold
Triumphant in your mind
Of the logic that you hold
You said no one would ever know
The love that we had shared
As I took my leave to go
It was clear that you didn't care
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
And I hear of your coming
And your going in the town
I hear stories of your smile
I hear stories of your frown
And the darkness can descend
We can relish all the pain
But I know that's what you love
'Cause you know I love the same
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?

And the darkness can descend
We can relish all the pain
But I know that's what you love
'Cause you know I love the same
It's a really beautiful song. It feels very intimate and I always almost feel like I'm intruding by listening to it.
It came to the end
It seems you had heard
As we walked the city streets
You never said a word
He knew the break up was coming I had stopped talking to him as much as I usually did. I came to visit him one last time but I couldn't make myself say the words.
When we finally sat down
Your eyes were full of spite
I was desperate, I was weak
I could not put up a fight
He started to cry and I got mad honestly. I was annoyed he didn't understand why I was so unhappy. But it was so horrible to see how upset he was so I began to cry too.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
I think about him everyday, I miss him everyday. He was so silly and so cute and so full of life. So many things remind me of him, I wonder is the same is true for him
You were strangely less than pained
Then you were cold
Triumphant in your mind
Of the logic that you hold
When I finally got up the nerve to end it his face was just blank. He was mad at me and assumed there was someone else he couldn't understand my reasoning
You said no one would ever know
The love that we had shared
As I took my leave to go
It was clear that you didn't care
Our relationship was rocky to begin with my friends didn't think I should be with him. In fact I broke up with a boy for him and no one understood what I saw in him. No one understood why we loved each other so much it wasn't meant to be but it happened. When I left he turned his back and didn't talk to me for a long time.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
I always wonder what he's doing and if he misses me
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
And I hear of your coming
And your going in the town
I hear stories of your smile
I hear stories of your frown
Whenever I talk to my friends from that town I always ask if anyone has heard about him. Whenever they actually have information it makes me sad, I miss him
And the darkness can descend
We can relish all the pain
But I know that's what you love
'Cause you know I love the same
when he finally began talking to me again he still loved me, and still missed me but we know that we can't be together. It just wouldn't work
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Do you ever think of me
In the quiet, in the crowd?
Then you were cold
Triumphant in your mind
Of the logic that you hold
... how well expressed, that sinking feeling. That moment in which no matter what you might say to the partner or friend, or the intensity with which you'd express the sentiment, you know full well that you're not likely to be heard.
Probably one of my favourites from the new album!
I think everyone can relate to that feeling of not having someone in your life anymore and wondering if they ever think about you.
"And the darkness can descend" could be a reference to a track off of Laura's I Speak Because I Can, too. I just love it when musicians reference their friends' work in their own songs. ((:
