Unpersuaded

I remember (Memory) It was television (T.V.) That was playing (Midnight) On a stranger's Walkman (Headphones) It was raining (Winter) At the subway station (New York) So I lingered (Waiting) here in hesitation (Tension) Because I was going away And you were staying I was going away And you were staying I was going away (Going away) And you were staying (Going away) You were swept away (Going away) But unpersuaded I remember (Recall) A certain confrontation (Weapons) You were scissors (Jagged) I was paper (Fragile) You were saying (Verbal) There was nothing to say (Silent) I was thinking (Mental) That it didn't matter (Checkmate, voided, cancelled) Because I was going away And you were staying I was going away And you were staying I was going away (Going away) And you were staying (Going away) You were swept away (Going away) But unpersuaded You weren't persuaded (This is closure)
