lyrics

it’s not old enough to be a photograph
it’s not new enough to be an airplane
and as the water never stays warm,
you will forget me in this form
am I bold enough?

does every color have a first time?
or do we know them when they meet our eyes?
if I have memories in all white,
do they mean more or less to my life?
am I without on the inside?

but, through my fever, cantilevers stand
thanks to some mad genius mind
it wasn’t mine, it wasn’t mine, it wasn’t mine
despite all reason, I still want a chance
to be some mad genius’s friend
until the end, until the end, until the end

when I turn all of the sound down
(you can’t believe how much the noise can change the volume of a town)
and put my ear to the cold ground
(I wait to hear your steps out there between somewhere you lost and found)
I can remember how your voice moved
I can remember how your voice moved
am I alone enough?

it’s a valentine’s regret
it’s a holiday wish for the best
it’s never quite what I expect
it’s being at attention always
it’s ever loving you in my way
it’s wanting to be there for what comes next
so what comes next?
