lyrics

You just called to say your fine
I thought you called to say your mine
Now this is not why I became
Then you left your heart in the burning sun
Then we washed our hands in the pouring rain
Dissect your life through frame by frame

All you had to do was say the word
But what you said was so absurd
I’m tired of asking you the reasons why
When we’ve been through this so many times
Now I’ll just rest here a little while and look for messages in the sky

Stop,
Whoever said we were leaving?

You just called to say your mine
But I found mine somewhere back in time
So tell me what it was you had to gain
When you left your heart in the burning sun
And when we washed our hands in the pouring rain
Dissect your life through frame by frame


Short memory
Light
It’s now out of perspective
Once we were kings!
Forgotten.
I’m sorry, what was your name?
Once confused
Strength came from the lake that drowned so many
We will come for you when you’re not ready
Ambush!
Give me spring crystals
Give me the morning
For I shall not become what the people ask
I was born shameless
Undecided grew the partially clothed angel
Has heaven departed with your fine company?
Time has been known to go so slow
What’s the reason when you said for me not to go?
Whoever said we were leaving?
