Here's the picture that we took in Cincinnati
The time we saw that big leauge baseball game
Here's the picture that we took in Printer's Alley
Down in Nashville when we met old what's his name
Here's one of me in my old '60 Chevy
The one that let us down in Baltimore
Here's the best one that I ever seen of Betty
And can you believe the dresses that you wore
Here's the picture that we took at graduation
I'm so glad you talked me out of quittin' school
Here I am when I worked at the filling station
And here's one of Ernie actin' like a fool
Here's the last one that we ever took of daddy
We tried hard to make him smile but he never did
And here's one I caught of you when you weren't ready
And here I am when I was just a kid
Oh sweetheart it's so much fun to be reminded
Of how we used to look and what we used to do
And each time we make a memory I'm reminded
I can't picture me with no one else but you
Here's a pose of you that looked so sweet and lovely
That's the way I pictured you right from the start
And here's a picture of you being close beside me
That's the picture that I carry in my heart
Oh sweetheart it's so much fun...

Thought you'd relate every will.
Perish it; your chocolate soul.
Help us wrong, deny your past.
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind!
Circumvent your Tiki doll,
When in fights, their on the go.
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind!
When the present can be sealed
Away, cold rust,
For the mighty conquered meal
Fair ways, for us,
When the present can be sealed
Away, cold rust,
For the mighty conquered meal
Can't you look at my shamed ass?
Now she's gone and got us once.
You can't see me Saturday.
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind
I've got pictures on my mind!
I just want to watch the paradise
I just want to see that clear, clear light
Don't want to be a member of a species that's deceasing
Keep on making those promises that they aren't keeping
I can't go on like this
I can't go on like this
Oh, I was a talking to the people next door
They said don't want to die in a nuclear war
Now we went walking down the old north road
We got a common cause we got a heavy, heavy load
Because we can't go on no no living like this
We can't go on
Watching pictures of the world
Watching pictures as they pass me by
Don't stop at that light, don't go out at night
Watching pictures of the world
Watching pictures as they pass me by
My artificial heart, expensive spare parts
I've been a sailor on the sea, I've been a flier in the air
I've seen a whole lot of bleeding hearts out there
They don't talk so much I tell you they still care
Yes they do, yes they do
They can't go on living like this they can't go on
They can't go on
They're watching pictures of the world
They're watching pictures as they pass me by
Don't sit around in silence you don't need a license
Watching pictures of the world
Watching pictures as they pass me by
It's moving in a hurry there's no need to worry
We're really going to change it the critical mass approaches
Whoa oh yeah
I've seen pictures
Well I saw you just the other day
And I could not help but look your way
I say you've just got this special look
That has got me completely hooked
Pictures on the wall
Pictures everywhere
Pictures on the wall
Everywhere I stare
Pictures on the wall
The ceiling and the floor
I'm in a metal room
And I cannot find the door
Will this feeling ever go away?
Or will this feeling stay?
Will this feeling ever go away?
'Cause I can't live the rest of my life this way
Pictures on the wall
(C'mon)
Pictures everywhere
Pictures on the wall
(C'mon c'mon)
Everywhere I stare
Pictures on the wall
(C'mon c'mon)
The ceiling and the floor
I'm in a metal room and I cannot find the door
I see your face in the clouds in the sky
I see your face before my eyes, yeah
I see your face everywhere
And now I don't know what to do
Oh oh
Pictures on the wall
Pictures everywhere
Pictures on the wall
Everywhere I stare
Pictures on the wall
The ceiling and the floor
I'm in a metal room
And I cannot find the door
Here I am and I found you
I thought I'd never be here
I told myself so many times
I have to let you go
But here I am and you're not
Here I am alone
All I want
is a picture for me to look at
All I need
for me to look at you when you're not there
I'm lost again and I found you
and I'm so glad you're here
I can't believe I deserve you
I thought I'd let you know
That here I am and you're not
You're looking at my pictures
Smilin' silent, but bright
They never saw the light-
Never saw the light of day
Declared forgotten-
Locked away
But something's gonna change
Yeah-
Something's gonna change with them
Yeah-
Do you cry?
Do you cry?
Tears are falling
Better keep your pictures within
Don't cry 'em out..
Do you wonder what they see?
Brittle wood, that never should
Never should-
Be a home
Lost relicts
Of glaring love
The became the only thing-
The only thing for you to cry
Yeah-
Do you cry?
Do you cry?
Tears are falling
Better keep your pictures within
Don't cry 'em out...
What do pictures say?
I'm gonna tell it to you
Listen to your heart-
They were tearing me apart
From you
Take your time
And take a look at your life
Remember me, when I loved thee
Don't forget and fly away
Yeah-
Do you cry?
Do you cry?
Tears are falling
Better keep your pictures within
Moving so slowly, wandering alone with you, silently revealed by you, I wish i could hold your hands, on each side of my head, so you could feel, my pictures of you, against the darger side, shadows move in your light, so beautiful you are.
(Chuck Jones/Steve Seskin)
Look at me, eighteen and tanned,
Behind the wheel of my old van,
"Hotel California" turned up loud,
No air-conditioning, windows down.
Look at you smilin' at me,
Don't know when I've been as happy,
As that weekend out in Joshua Tree,
When I got down on my knees.
An' I like lookin' at old photographs.
Reminds me of the way we've always made each other laugh.
Pictures of a life we've made together.
Memories of a love that just gets better with time.
So many good times,
There's no way I will forget.
They've got me thinkin' 'bout pictures,
We haven't taken yet.
Next year let's go to Disneyworld,
Can't wait to see our little girl,
Hold hands with Mickey Mouse,
Chocolate ice-cream on her mouth.
An' you'll get all upset when I,
Snap you comin' off that ride,
With that pasty white look:
You won't put that one in our book.
An' I like lookin' back at all the things we've done.
But I love dreamin' of the years yet to come.
Pictures of a life we've made
i've never understood
why i always think about it
and why it's always on my mind i don't know
i often wonder
if things are gonna change at all
Cuz now i get the closest when i'm all alone
cuz all i want
and all i need
could i please get from you
i just wanna get laid
don't care how much she costs
i just wanna get laid
every day and night
i just wanna get laid
don't care how good she looks
i just wanna get laid
tonight and every night for the rest of my life
i ain't got much
just pictures on my wall
it's not that much but it'll do
my friends all laugh
they have no symptahy
i guess i'll be the last one to screw
they say i'm scared
and unprepared
could i please learn from you
i just wanna get laid
don't care how much she costs
i just wanna get laid
every day and night
i just wanna get laid
don't care how good she looks
i just wanna get laid
tonight and every night for the rest of my life
i've never understood
why i always think about it
and why it's always on my mind i don't know
i often wonder
if things are gonna change at all
Cuz now i get the closest when i'm all alone
cuz all i want
and all i need
could i please get from you
i just wanna get laid
don't care how much she costs
i just wanna get laid
every day and night
i just wanna get laid
don't care how good she looks
i just wanna get laid
don't care how much she costs
i just wanna get laid
every day and night
i just wanna get laid
don't care how good she looks
(Why do I feel like this is haunting me. Why do I feel like I've wasted my time.)
(Is it over, is it really over)
Sitting in this room alone, these four walls surrounding me.
Even though we're not together, girl its still your face I see.
Trapped in a frame of the way things used to be.
All these memories, all these memories.
All the love that we had is gone, don't even know who's right or wrong.
So I guess I gotta let you go, I'm taking down all these pictures.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall.
I'm taking down all these pictures.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall. (Oh babe)
Baby you don't know how much I miss you girl.
Baby you don't know how much I miss you girl.
Okay here we go, boxes out, pictures in.
Okay I know it's hard but it's time to start over again.
I'm so tempted to call you, but I can't, no I won't, can't give in.
Cause in two weeks, we'll be right back here again.
All the love that we had is gone, don't even know who's right or wrong.
So I guess I gotta let you go, and take down all these pictures.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall.
I'm taking down all these pictures.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall. (Oh babe)
I can still see your face even though it is put away.
I hear your voice call my name.
Asking me if it's too late (Oh woah)
I miss you.
Talking:
Girl: Our anniversaries coming up, what do you want to do this year?
Frankie: Mm.
Girl: Frankie! I need you to listen to me, I need you to be here for me, I need you to be involved.
Frankie: I didn't ask for this. Okay?
Frankie: I didn't ask for this.
No matter how hard I try I can't get you off my mind.
I swear that I'm going crazy without you in my life (Oh no)
Things aint the same and I don't know why it had to change.
Girl I don't know what to do, got to get over you.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall.
Don't know what to do-o-o-o-o.
Pictures, pictures of you on my wall.
(Pictures of you on my wall)
Girl you don't know how much I miss you.
Baby you don't know, baby you don't know.
Baby you don't know how much I miss you girl.
Baby you don't know, baby you don't know.
Once I read your name
And I heard your stories
That i was just coming to get enough
Now where'd you go
Cause i've been waiting
To see you right before my eyes
They look so good in the pictures
How come they're not around?
They still live
They're way up high
Where they've been dying out to the world
So now i cross my arms
And i keep my eyes closed
Cause I can barely stand to watch
Now that you're gone
And i have disappointments
Like i can never get enough
They look so good in the pictures
How come they're not around?
They still live
They're way up high
Where they've been dying out
Yeah but they look so good in your pictures
How come they're not around?
They still live
They're way up high
Where they've been dying out to the world
And i will wash my hands
Of all your cheap imatations
As a payment
For all the pain you've given me
They look so good in the pictures
How come they're not around?
They still live
They're way up high
Where they've been dying out
Yeah but they look so good in your pictures
How come they're not around?
They still live
They're way up high
You have her pictures
You have her pictures
You have her pictures
Everywhere
You're covered in stitches
You're covered in stitches
You think I can't see them
But I know they're there
Take her down from the wall
I just sell firewall
You can't keep a frozen
Doorman at your court
You can try to move on
Tripped by stitches come undone
You lost your big heart
You lost your big heart
You lost your big heart
Beating bare
She gave you a new start
She gave you a new start
But you knew you'd lost her
To despair
Take her down from the wall
I just sell firewall
You can't keep a frozen
Doorman at your court
You can try to move on
Tripped by stitches come undone
You skin burns and prickles
You skin burns and prickles
You skin burns and prickles
When she's near
You try to play it cool
You try to play it cool
You try to play it cool
But you're filled with fear
Take her down from the wall
I just sell firewall
You can't keep a frozen
Doorman at your court
You can try to move on
Tripped by stitches come undone
Take her down from the wall
Let her go make her yours
You can't keep a frozen
Doorman at your court
You can try to move on
Tripped by stitches come undone
You can try to move on
Tripped by stitches come undone
You can try to move on
Tripped by stitches come undone
You can try to move on
Tear out all the pages one by one
put them in the fire
The light shines almost brighter than before
one more time
Was it out of cruelty
you said goodbye today
The pictures are turning yellow
I helped them on their way
A wind picks up the pieces
blows them all around
breathing the smoke and breath it out
and tear all the pages one by one
Put them in the fire
the light shines almost brighter than before
one more time, one more time
These times were so cruel
their hopes and fears, so I thought and stopped them
before they got to near
Scratch out your memories, whispering in the dark
they are everywhere, but they are nowhere
When I tear all the pages one by one
and I put them in the fire
The light shines almost brighter, brighter than before
one more time, one more time
When there is time of explaining
you are still around,
there are no more excuses to be made, no!
These times of past
it would be unkind
it wasn’t so graceful
in these days
So tear all the pages one by one
and put them in the fire
The light shines almost brighter than before
Pictures in my mind, leave me bitter and unkind
So excuse me if I don't feel the way you do
All around, on the ground the suffering can be found
And I want to help but I'm not sure how too
I know they have it rough but I just can't do enough
So I wonder if I should even bother
Poor girl just wants some food, bet it would change your attitude
IF you found that hungry girl to be your daughter
And still we turn the other cheek
And I for one am feeling cowardice and weak
We go through life with our eyes closed
But in our hearts and minds we'll always know
Was at the end of my rope and had given up all hope
But now I see that's just the easy way out
And I know many have more but my health I'm thankful for
I don't need everything that's not what I'm about
So if you've got what you don't need, please don't resort to greed
Share your power don't abuse it
I'm left with a choice armed with only my voice
And you can bet that I intend to use it
I'm not going to turn the other cheek
No more feeling cowardice and weak
Go through life with my eyes open wide
And when someone needs my help I won't run and Hide
It wasn't out of cruelty
I said goodbye today
But the pictures were turning yellow
I helped them on their way
The wind picks up the pieces
Blows them all around
Breathe in the smoke,then breathe it out
I tore out all the pages one by one
Put them in the fire
Light shines almost brighter than before
One more time one more time
These times insult you
With their doubts and fears
So I thought I'd stop them
Before they got too near
Scratch at your memory
whisper in the dark
They are everywhere
And they are nowhere
I tore out all the pages one by one
Put them in the fire
Light shines almost brighter then before
One more time one more time
I was tired of explaining
Why you were still around
There were no more excuses to be made
The time has passed
And it can be unkind
You didn't look so graceful in your old age
Tear out all the pages one by one
Put them in the fire
Light shines almost brighter then before
The picture you gave me seemed so sad today
Secrets still hid behind your eyes
Blinded and foolish we seemed happy then
I don't believe I realised all your worth
Picture I'm cold and I can't feel your warmth
I can't feel anything but I think it's all that I
Picture I can't see, one of us must be
Feeling down, feeling down
You took me in you gave me life
And you gave me love
I've paid you back with disregard and lies
If I love you now I loved you then
If I miss you now I missed you then
And I'm sorry, so sorry
Picture I'm cold and I can't feel your warmth
I can't feel anything but I feel okay, feel okay
Picture I can't see, one of us must be
One of us must be feeling down, feeling down
And I feel alright
I'm feeling just fine
If life was a picture drawn by you
you painted it by numbers like everything you do
I will pick myself back and brush myself back down
defying gravity by keeping your feet off the ground
You life is nothing but a breeze
walk through it with nothing but ease
I would like to say I'd stay
but that would be my lie for the day
Knock at my door only to be turned away
you need no charity 'cos you are one yourself
feeding and growing living off everyone else
your wasting away and this your final day
Hello alcohol my true friend
never far away and always make pain go away
a true life with darkness my partner in life
when I feel bad I'll just turn out the light
Oh, oh, oh,
Wait for you, forever,
Its what I'm doing tonight,
Tonight, alone,
All of us here,
Are waiting around,
And not thinking straight,
I am checking on the inside,
Just to see another picture,
I just wanted to see you happy,
To see a difference in the picture,
I just wanna, keep on checking
To see if I see just something different,
I just wanna,
See your picture,
See your picture,
I wanted,
To tell you,
What you did not know,
I wanted,
You to be,

For you to come back home,
For this to be something more,
I am checking on the inside,
Just to see another picture,
I just wanted to see you happy,
To see a difference in the picture,
I just wanna, keep on checking
To see if I see just something different,
I just wanted,
See your picture,
See your picture,
All of us here,
Are waiting around
For something new,
Something you,
And we are not the ones,
You wanted us to be,
And thats all right for me,

for all those times
when nothing else at all

billfold out
deep inside
amongst ID and credit cards

a thousand words of photo art
wallet sized
never bent or ever torn up in the least
i take good care of you
you mean so much to me
pictures of you and i
they always make me smile
even at the worst of moments
they're always what i seek
when ever i get weak
they keep my head up and my heart unbroken
hair is flowing
eyes and a smile
jump off the paper
and over a mile
to bring you to me
almost for real
no matter where i am

they always make me smile
even at the worst of moments
they're always what i seek

even short hours much less a day
i might as well tear out my lungs
becuase we fit together
nobody knows me better
without you
i'll come undone
undone
pictures of you and i
they always make me smile
even at the worst of moments
they're always what i seek
when ever i get weak
they keep my head up and my heart unbroken
my heart unbroken
Picture talking with your friends without a conversation
Picture walking with yourself without a complication
I know, I know, you're running from me, I know, I know
Taking all my time, taking all my shine, taking all my pride
Taking almost everything, everything
Picture sleeping in your bed without a tug of war
Picture drinking with your friends
I know, I know, you're running from me, I know, I know
You're taking all my time, taking all my shine, you're taking all my pride
Taking almost everything, everything
Picture talking with your friends, picture talking with your friends
I know, I know, you're running from me, I know, I know
Taking all my time, taking all my shine, taking all my pride
Taking almost everything, everything
Realization is coming to me, the facts and figures are all adding up to me
Realization is coming to me, the facts and figures are all adding up to me
Realization is coming to me, the facts and figures are all adding up to me
Realization is coming to me, the facts and figures are all adding up to me
Baby, my head's full of wishes
Baby, my head's full of pictures
Baby, my head's full of colors
Baby, my head's full of pictures of you
Baby, I spend all my money
Baby, don't think that it's funny
Baby, my head's full of colors
Baby, my head's full of pictures of you
Baby, my head's full of wishes
Baby, my head's full of pictures
Baby, my head's full of colors
Baby, my head's full of pictures of you
Baby, I spend all my money
Baby, don't think that it's funny
Baby, my head's full of colors
Panic, all hell breaks loose
A battered body screams abuse
A plastic bullet ends his youth
A motherless son turns and pukes
Chorus:
Behind closed curtains
Terror stares
What are they doing prowling round our streets
Who are they looking for with bullets in their breech
Screamig sirens fill the air
Then turn of nowhere there's coppers everywhere
Chorus
God saved the Queen with blanks from a gun
But who is our protector when provoked to run
We still don't know why they surrounded the streets
But now they've withdrawn in full retreat
Chorus
I stack these magazines in the corner,
(After I'm done with them)
And I still got the same hopes that I started with,
(That you'd be in one of them)
My camera has she'd some tears since you left him,
With nothing, with nothing,
How am I supposed to remember?
I got the memories,
But the memories fade baby,
What am I gonna show to my kids girl?
When I'm older and my mind is telling me to forget you,
What's gonna make me remember?
That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures
Cause' I didn't wanna miss our thing, miss our thing
Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures
When you knew they were all that I had left, nothing left
They were part of our history, this story
I was always taking pictures,
Cause' I didn't wanna miss you so bad
Miss you this bad, miss you so bad, miss you so
We didn't make love we celebrated it's invention
Confetti on the mattress I used to have those images,
Tonight I came home, they were just embers in the fire,
With my hard drive, almost no goodbyes
How the hell am I supposed to remember?
Tell me now, I got the memories,
But the memories fade baby,
What am I gonna show to my kids girl?
When I'm older and my mind is telling me to forget you,
What's gonna make me remember?
That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures
Cause' I didn't wanna miss our thing, miss our thing
Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures
When you knew they were all that I had left, nothing left
They were part of our history, this story
I was always taking pictures,
Cause' I didn't wanna miss you so bad
Miss you this bad, miss you so bad, miss you so
No video, no polaroid,
No record of the love we had,
My Nikon wasn't fast enough,
To catch my heart break in half,
No smiles in my picture frames, no,
Just got them little basic ones that the picture frames come with,
Models, wedding pictures, you know
That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures
Cause' I didn't wanna miss our thing, miss our thing
Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures
When you knew they were all that I had left, nothing left
They were part of our history, this story
I was always taking pictures,
Cause' I didn't wanna miss you so bad
If you don't know me
Please why don't you tell me
'Cause I don't wanna be with you no more
The stories that you tell
Please somebody else
I feel that something falling in your voice
I lived that battle to move past the shadow
That's why I won't woke you anymore
Something's gonna boom, dying tell me true
As I look into that spin of broken glass
Now you don't got a picture of me anymore
Now you don't got a picture of me anymore
If you don't know me
Please why don't you tell me
'Cause I don't wanna be with you no more
The stories that you tell
Please somebody else
I feel that something falling in your voice
If I got it buckled would you ran away and possible Again it would as aductive since
again
Something's gonna boom, dying tell me true
As I look into that spin of broken glass
Now you don't got a picture of me anymore
[Verse 1]
Baby
It's been about two weeks
Lookin' out the window
Sittin' on the road with no service tryna send my girl a text but they all wanna send slow
Plus I got these off brands hatin' on me
And the groupie's on the road I'ma tip strong
But I know my baby girl waitin' on me
So I'ma keep it on lock til I get home, til I get home
Listen
Baby, you're the only one I care for
Even though there's birds around me like a scare-crow
You gotta man, they look at me crazy
But I still play hard ball 'cause you always kept it G baby
I'm the one for you and I'm ready to show that
I got a private place in this space that we can float at
Even when I'm gone and you thinking that you should hold back
So I'm thinkin' about you, sleepin' next to your kodaks
[Chorus]
Little mama pick the day-ay-ay
Baby we can roll-oll-oll
And we can runaway-ay-ay
You just gotta let me know-oh-oh
'Cause babygirl I heard you gotta man
But you look so good
I just wanna spend time witcha
'Cause I miss ya, yeah I miss ya
And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
at her picture's
at her picture's
And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her (Starein' at her x5)
[Verse 2]
Yeah
I say, I say
It's like
Fresh off the plane, got to 7/11
I think about everyday girl from 7 to 7
She know I'm out here protectin' and reppin'
She text me and say make a wish it's 11:11
These girls screamin' crazy, it's hard for me to focus
You at work and I know you wasn't expectin' roses
Yeah I know I'm good, I'm prolly the coldest
They say nobody's perfect, but baby you the closest
She says it's a different picture and different frame
I'm startin' to like the bench 'cause I don't play the games
She say she miss me so much, and I say the same
Without you I'ma go insane
[Chorus]
Little mama pick the day-ay-ay
Baby we can roll-oll-oll
And we can runaway-ay-ay
You just gotta let me know-oh-oh
'Cause babygirl I heard you gotta man
But you look so good
I just wanna spend time witcha
'Cause I miss ya, yeah I miss ya
And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
at her picture's
at her picture's
And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her (Starein' at her x5)
?????? starein' at your kodaks
Baby girl I miss you, I just wanna show that
Lookin' at your posters, and your cell phone pics
'Cause when you're gone from me, girl I listen to this
[Chorus]
Little mama pick the day-ay-ay
Baby we can roll-oll-oll
And we can runaway-ay-ay
You just gotta let me know-oh-oh
'Cause babygirl I heard you gotta man
But you look so good
I just wanna spend time witcha
'Cause I miss ya, yeah I miss ya
And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her picture's
Little mama pick the day-ay-ay
Baby we can roll-oll-oll
And we can runaway-ay-ay
You just gotta let me know-oh-oh
'Cause babygirl I heard you gotta man
But you look so good
I just wanna spend time witcha
'Cause I miss ya, yeah I miss ya
And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
Starein' at her picture's
at her picture's
at her picture's
Tell me this, could it be suddenly,
I'm not like I once used to be,
and I was all that I had,
which wasn't all much in the end
and this head, this heart,
was breaking apart by the start,
so long, im gone
If this wasn't your plan, what was it then,
to leave me like this, I can't understand
the point of all that you've done with your time,
in pictures your mine
lift your head, out of bed and realize,
that everything else is a lie,
and when you wake will you say,
"what was i doing that day"
did you know when you go,
there is nothing here left of me,
did you know when you go,
(R.J. Johnson/The Honeyrods)
Pictures on the wall
stop and stare
let the moment take you there
in my mind I can see
See an empty sky
blue and white
doesn't matter if it's night
I can see them
Pictures on the wall
and they're not far from the fall of falling
it doesn't matter if they're
held to something
Pictures I love you
and the colors of your hues are calling
I searched in terms of things
I'm not knowing
It's your call
I kept your pictures just because
I love you
It's your call
it didn't matter at all
Drawing in the sand
falling objects from you hands
I hope to be shown the side of things
that release you
Super magic cars
rows of telepathic stars all seem to
shoot like rockets from
the walls inside you
Color in the summer
and it couldn't be much hotter
painting on the sidewalk
pictures made of water
Color in the summer
and it couldn't be much hotter
why not hold what's real
Violent despair emerge in shadows
Craving for reflection
Wisdom fades in a rotting body
As it grows from nothingness
So eager to deny the agony
The aftermath is unpredictable
The retribution of intelligent form
Darker than a blaze of sorrow
Intoxicating fearless dreams
Floods a mind anger
Pictures with leaking torrents
A dream for the human eye
Death takes a natural step
And torment becomes absolute
Like an occult wave of madness
Pain strikes the ruin
The source of joy lies empty behind
The smell of rotten life
Leads to respiratoy distress
Fear is the key to sacrifice
Petrified the human betrayal
Only condemned spheres existing
Say a prayer for the depraved
Intoxicating fearless dreams
Floods a mind anger
Pictures with leaking torrents
Oh the wasted time
With the pictures that he finds
Of those perfect people
Living out his life
He wished he had their river
So he could skate their way
Oh the sorry story
The boy who had it all
Though was tall and mighty
He always felt so small
He couldn’t find his river
Couldn’t skate away
So you go and you say
That you don’t care either way
But it’s bullshit and you know it, yeah
All those he looked up to
Were never looking back
Though he tried the hardest
Stepping on no cracks
Still his back went broken most days
Well I guess he should have learned it
Early on in life
Nothing that’s most precious
Is easily in sight
And everything you cling to
Surely breaks away
So you go and you say
That you don’t care either way
But it’s bullshit and you know it, yeah
Truth is, hear me straight
If I don’t change something I’ll break
And I’m tired of living this way
Tell me now just one thing:
Why’s this what you do?
When you say it breaks you
Pieces you in two
Tell me straight now is it,
Is it worth it to you?
Well when I go and I say
That I don’t care either way
It’s such bullshit and I know it, yeah
Truth is, hear me straight:
If I don’t change something I’ll break
You wanna go for a ride
So get in the car
No I won't hurt you
Unless you ask me to
Hurt you
I won't hurt you
Unless you ask me to
Hurt you
And take off your clothes
I wanna take pictures of you
I wanna capture you in digital
I wanna take pictures of you
You wanna go for a ride
So get in the car
No I won't touch you there
Unless you ask me to
Touch you there
I won't touch you there
Unless you ask me to
Touch you there
And take off your clothes
I wanna take pictures of you
I wanna capture you in digital
I wanna take pictures of you
You won't age a day
In freeze frame
You won't age a day
In freeze frame
You won't age a day
In freeze frame
Take off your clothes
I wanna take pictures of you
I wanna capture you in digital
I wanna take pictures of you
Take off your clothes
I wanna take pictures of you
[Intro]
Sometimes
you fall in love but forget
where it all started
yeah
[Verse 1:]
Knew it was too good to be true
our love was so oh so perfect
looking back at the damage
like was it really worth it?
cause I did you wrong
and you did me wrong
at the end of the day
we still moved on
and I feel like something
something is missing
when I lay down in my bed
It feels like in-completion
and the day goes on
they quickly drift away
it hurts to know another man
has took my place
sitting in my bed
things rushing through my head
thought I could let her go but I can't instead
with the BS she fed
and can't take no more but
the hardest thing was watching you walk out the door
[Pre-Hook:]
All the things I said
wish I could take it back
I didn't mean nothing that I said
I was just so mad
I know its too late and I can't change that
Now all I'm left with is this stupid photograph
[Hook:]
I'm alone in my room
looking at your pictures baby
I try to throw you away
but I can't forget you baby
[Verse 2:]
These movies keep on playing
of when we were alright
I still remember the first day you came in my life
You had the prettiest smile
I couldn't resist
back in high school
we had our first kiss
so many things I miss too bad I let it go
I had so much love for you but it didnt show
How I really felt I just played it cool
but looking back now don't think I deserved you
not a day goes on and I'm all alone
might go to the club but don't stay that long
cause these girl
they no more exist
after I had you I don't want no other chick
Please forget
[Pre-Hook:]
All the things I said
wish I could take it back
I didn't mean nothing that I said
I was just so mad
I know its too late and I can't change that
Now all I'm left with is this stupid photograph
[Hook:]
I'm alone in my room
looking at your pictures baby
I try to throw you away
