Far away from all I know
Looking out my new window
I see a rose
Past the entrance on the ground
I found its petals all around
All things change
I don't mind and that's okay
This hotel view will be replaced
In due time
All these flowers break apart
and pixelate upon my heart
Time slips right through our lips
and we wonder where it's been
Beads of sand fall through the glass
every second slow of every year so fast
Time drifts through fingertips
and we wonder where it went
This calenders lost in the breeze
This holiday is forgetting me
And I'll forget it too
The Jellyfish are out again
Young and old to be young again
Lost at sea
But it's alright and everything is just fine
I guess I'll remember but oh never mind
All is well
All these flowers break apart
and pixelate upon my heart
Time slips right through our lips
and we wonder where it's been
Beads of sand fall through the glass
every second slow of every year so fast
Time drifts through fingertips
and we wonder where it went
And all those petals fell
Like memories we held
But could not keep
When was the last time that we spoke face to face?
Our lives our on the run but we can't hold the pace
And when my telephone rings I never know how I should behave
Times have taught us how to bury and ignore
When our closest friend is a closed bedroom door
If I look away i'm sorry my eyes just aren't used to yours
I feel like there are two of me
We're all stuck dreaming in the screen
Somehow we're watching ourselves sleep
Turn the lights off
Turn on the dream
So Turn the lights off
Turn on the dream
Brown curly hair she waited for me there
I didn't have much to say but our silence filled the empty space
Nights on Bell Oak Road playing piano
You wrote me a song or two
So here's one for you
You said I was the boy with comfortable eyes
Well I must have come up with a damn good disguise
You can't even look at me without an eye in return worth questioning
Evenings were swallowed by your living room
With my nose in a book while you carried a tune
I should have been closer to you
I should've got on that bench and sang it with you
I dug a hole for myself to crawl in
Somehow you found me and gave me your hand
I could've got out if I dug through the soil
But I pulled you in and now i'm out instead
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Staring down uneven sidewalks
Walking from the light pollution
I don't know why the sky is crying
With no mind to cause confusion
How many times can I argue with myself
On a single square of pavement (a single square of pavement)
I'm watching all the people who are watching me unravel
But I just pulled the string
It's such a messy thing
Down the street two taillights glowing
My eyes wander past the glass
No one knows quite where their going
So why do we move so fast?
If I could find myself tonight
Tomorrow would be out of mind and sight
If I could find myself tonight
Tomorrow would be out of mind and sight
All my doubts collect
Like puddles in the potholes
All my doubts collect
Like puddles in the potholes
Now I'm looking at the streetlights
Spots of Yellow blinking bright
We are all moving together
With every step I feel better
Oblivious each to the other
Glowing blind let your light scatter
See the day the sun uncovers
We'll see the day the sun uncovers
We headed for the West side of the state
Watching all those Yellow lines just go and go and go
Down the road
But when we got to the lake
We dipped our toes into the water
But the water was far too cold
So we walked along the shoreline
Talking about the nights that our lovers stole
I thought we could go for a drive
To find the snowy tide
Let's write our names in the sand
This time
I brush away all of our footprints
Let's get lost for a while
When I look through all of these pictures
I'll hope that you smiled
So capture me
Behind the lens of your camera
I wanna see every little thing
Every uncertain expression
Every wrinkle on your face will be contained
Just keep it all in focus
I wanna see everything
I thought we could go for a drive
To find the snowy tide
Let's write our names in the sand
This time
I brush away all of our footprints
Let's get lost for a while
When I look through all of these pictures
I'll hope that you smiled
