|[Chorus]
|[Verse 1]
You were one of those classic ones
I'm tired of tending to this fire


Traveling around this sun
I've used up all I've collected


You were one of those classic ones
I have singed my hands


I wish she knew you
It's glowing, embers barely showing


You were one of those classic ones
Proof of life in the shadows


Now everybody knows
Dancing on my plans


You were one of those classic ones, yeah


[Chorus]
They know that it's almost
They know that it's almost over


[Post-Chorus]
They know that it's almost


Alright
They know that it's almost over


You're a legend in my own mind


My middle name, my goodbye
[Verse 2]


The burning is so low it's concerning


[Verse]
'Cause they know that when it goes out


You were here when I wrote this
It's a glorious gone


But the masters and mixes
It's only time before they show me


Will take too long to finish to show you
Why no one ever comes back


I'm sorry I did not visit
With details from beyond


Did not know how to take it


When your eyes did not know me
[Chorus]


Like I know you
They know that it's almost


They know that it's almost over


[Chorus]
They know that it's almost
 
They know that it's almost over
 
(They know)

In time, I will leave the city
 
For now, I will stay alive
 
In time, I will leave the city
 
For now, I will stay alive
 
In time, I will leave the city
 
For now, I will stay alive
 
In time, I will leave the city


You were one of those classic ones
For now, I will stay alive


Travelin' around this sun


You were one of those classic ones
[Chorus]


I wish she knew you (I wish she knew you)
They know that it's almost


You were one of those classic ones
They know that it's almost over


Now everybody knows (Wish she knew you)
They know that it's almost


You were one of those classic ones, yeah
They know that it's almost over


(They know)


[Post-Chorus]
(They know)


Alright


You're a legend in my own mind
[Verse 3]


My middle name, my goodbye
Last year I needed change of pace


Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, oh
Couldn't take the pace of change


Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Moving hastily


Alright (wish she knew you)
But this year, though I'm far from home


You're a legend in my own mind
In Trench I'm not alone


My middle name, my goodbye
These faces facin' me




[Outro]
[Outro]


Then the day that it happened, I recorded this last bit
They know
 
They know


I look forward to having a lunch with you again

Lyrics

Album version
[Verse 1]

I'm tired of tending to this fire

I've used up all I've collected

I have singed my hands

It's glowing, embers barely showing

Proof of life in the shadows

Dancing on my plans


[Chorus]

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over


[Verse 2]

The burning is so low it's concerning

'Cause they know that when it goes out

It's a glorious gone

It's only time before they show me

Why no one ever comes back

With details from beyond


[Chorus]

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

(They know)

They know that it's almost over

(They know)

They know that it's almost over

(They know)

(They know)

(They know)

(They know)


[Bridge]

In time, I will leave the city

For now, I will stay alive

In time, I will leave the city

For now, I will stay alive

In time, I will leave the city

For now, I will stay alive

In time, I will leave the city

For now, I will stay alive


[Chorus]

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

They know that it's almost

They know that it's almost over

(They know)

(They know)


[Verse 3]

Last year I needed change of pace

Couldn't take the pace of change

Moving hastily

But this year, though I'm far from home

In Trench I'm not alone

These faces facin' me


[Outro]
