G
Lady future's arms are lily white
F
They stretch before you come inside
G
There's room enough, she's generous
F
Come on, come up, while we're still 
young

G
You want to love your life from a 
prison?
F
Of all this uninvited altruism
G
The homemade weapons you're 
fashioning
F
Are hellbent on doing us both in

[Chorus]
G
You never mean what you say

Why don't you say what you mean?
F
I never get anywhere

I get the space in between
G
Beautifully mutilated

Instantly antiquated
F
I will admit I almost always 
underestimate it

G
You better mean what you say

Why don't you say what you mean?
F
I never get anywhere

I get the space in between
G
Beautifully mutilated

Instantly antiquated
F
I will admit I almost always 
underestimate it

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G
Let's begin at the beginning

Let us revisit the past
F
Like when the houselights are 
dimming

Like silver screen photograph

G
It makes a beautiful sound

When nobody else is around
F
It has a wonderful way

Of eating up entire days

G
We'll go swimming in libations
F
Forgive unexplained lacerations
G
The otherworldly manifestations
F
I could live in the breath you're 
wasting

[Chorus]
G
You never mean what you say

Why don't you say what you mean?
F
I never get anywhere

I get the space in between
G
Beautifully mutilated

Instantly antiquated
F
I will admit I almost always 
underestimate it

G
You never mean what you say

Why don't you say what you mean?
F
I never get anywhere

I get the space in between
G
Beautifully mutilated

Instantly antiquated
F
I will admit I almost always 
underestimate it
                   G
You don't owe them anything
                       F
No, you don't owe them anything
                       G
No, you don't owe them anything
