Lyrics:
Sometimes it's so hard to show the way you feel
Sometimes it seems like the words aren't real
Sometimes it makes no difference what you're trying to say
When all the words come out wrong anyway
I've said too many words to catch them all in time
I've used the hurting words that took away your shine
Sometimes you can't keep from falling in
Obscuring waters, against the stream we swim
Sometimes I feel like drowning just to make you say
All of the words you never want to say to me now
I've said too many words to catch them all in time
I've used the hurting words that took away your shine
I've said too many words to make you, make you understand and see
There's far too many things that you and I can't say
Sometimes it's so hard to show the way you feel
Sometimes you know the words you say aren't real
Sometimes I hate myself for hating things in you
And there's no words to heal, heal all my wounds now
Nevermore is the eponymous debut album by Seattle progressive metal band Nevermore. Released in 1995 under Century Media, it was singer Warrel Dane and bassist Jim Sheppard's first release after departing from their previous band, Sanctuary, in 1994. Having recruited drummer Van Williams and former Sanctuary touring guitarist Jeff Loomis, they formed the band Nevermore and began anew.
This was Nevermore's first and only album to feature original drummer Mark Arrington. Despite not being credited as the drummer on the album, he did play on half of the tracks.
A music video was produced for the song "What Tomorrow Knows." It would also be the sole track from Nevermore to be featured on Manifesto of Nevermore, the band's 2009 greatest hits compilation.
