[Verse 1]
Another year already
How you hoped that it would come
All the days and weeks unfolding as we
Buttoned up our coats and headed home
But what's a home?
Another place you never go
Another space nobody knows
The things you do
When you're alone
And I'm alone and you're alone again this year
I'm alone and you're alone again this year

[Chorus]
There are things still left to say
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
There are things still left to say
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
Anyway
Anyway

[Verse 2]
Do you miss me when I'm not around
'Cause you don't see me when I'm here
I'm like a ghost of myself already
If I could I would disappear
But I'm still here and you're still here
We're all still here
I'm still here and you're still here
We're all still here

[Chorus]
There are things still left to say
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
There are things still left to say
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
You're afraid
What are you afraid of?
Anyway

[Verse 3]
Should I explain myself?
I'd rather read the dictionary
Why does everybody else
Feel closer to me than
I can feel to them
Though my reticence was necessary
Do you really know me well?
Do you think that we are friends?
Are we friends?
[Chorus]
There are things still left to say
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
There are things still left to say
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
I've got phrases
I've got phrases, I've got phrases
I've got phrases
