An image (from Latin: imago) is an artifact, for example a two-dimensional picture, that has a similar appearance to some subject–usually a physical object or a person.
Images may be two-dimensional, such as a photograph, screen display, and as well as a three-dimensional, such as a statue or hologram. They may be captured by optical devices–such as cameras, mirrors, lenses, telescopes, microscopes, etc. and natural objects and phenomena, such as the human eye or water surfaces.
The word image is also used in the broader sense of any two-dimensional figure such as a map, a graph, a pie chart, or an abstract painting. In this wider sense, images can also be rendered manually, such as by drawing, painting, carving, rendered automatically by printing or computer graphics technology, or developed by a combination of methods, especially in a pseudo-photograph.
A volatile image is one that exists only for a short period of time. This may be a reflection of an object by a mirror, a projection of a camera obscura, or a scene displayed on a cathode ray tube. A fixed image, also called a hard copy, is one that has been recorded on a material object, such as paper or textile by photography or digital processes.

In 2006 he released Live Trucker, a greatest hits live album that went mostly unnoticed.

Truckin' is one thing, High-Ballin' is another, and the way they do it is something else!
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
Seven rivers of red wine.
Thirteen clovers on an elf's hand.
Outstanding volcanos
throwing out death in a dark blue sky.
Shining eye in a crystal sphere,
marble towers turning around.
A twisted landscape,
awful, obscure, obscene.
Corridors of geometry.
Apple tree, poisonous.
Undulate shapes crossing a mirror of liquid mass.
Oceans of illness kissing the coasts of brutality.
Monochromatic art showing a diversity of faces.
Lifeless planet, empty and gray. A gloomy scene.
On the heavens, a stone citadel.
Greatness, mystic beauty and perfection.
Cascades of blood.
Vulture clouds over fields of starvation.
Golden mask. Lines on desertic paths.
Ancient god, thunder and lightning.
Under filth rain,
open wounds in the heart of the earth.
Labyrinth of ivory.
Evil beast, dangerous.
Sunflowers garden in the middle of a tiny swanlake.
Plague of rats running down the streets. Chaotic streets.
So delicious, fine still life, displaying in a reddish room.
Morbid claws above mankind, pulling the strings.
Corridors of ivory.
Apple tree, dangerous.
Plague of rats running down the streets. Chaotic streets.
Morbid claws above mankind, pulling the strings.
Oceans of illness kissing the coasts of brutality.
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
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...
So I ride
Ride through seas of dreams tonight
Our souls united
Don't wake up, please stay with me
Or we will be divided
And I fly
On the wings of love tonight
Within this dream I'm living
I'd rather die than open my eyes
Sad eyes
Burning their picture
In my heart
The pain will never die
Tears I cry
But they won't save you... you...
And my love will burn forever on
And I fly
Softly through your mind tonight
Our souls united
And I can feel your heart beats like mine
And we are one
My heart is bearing
The pain of thousand tears gone by
Sad eyes
Burning their picture
In my heart
The pain will never die
Tears I cry
But they won't save you... you...
And my love will burn forever on
Sad eyes
Burning their picture
In my heart
The pain will never die
Tears I cry
But they won't save you... you...
And my love will burn forever on
Sad eyes
Burning their picture
In my heart
The pain will never die
Tears I cry
But they won't save you... you...
I see places I shouldn't have seen
I been places I shouldn't have been
I turn things baby know what I mean
I don't know if I'm man or machine
I see pictures in the back of my mind
I see pictures in the back of my mind
They're just pictures a delicate mixture on the stave
People fighting in a faraway land
Turf wars on the palm of my hand
Sugar coat it sweeter than honey
You can ride like a crash test dummy
We wait and watch and we watch and we wait
Pushing buttons as we regulate
Playing uptown ginger on the twenty first star and
Smith and Wesson or a bedtime story bout
Pictures in the back of my mind
I see pictures in the back of my mind
They're just pictures, a delicate mixture on the stave
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Do the right thing bring me around
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Do the right thing bring me around
Breath it in and breath it out
Reaping spaces what it's all about
Killing time when it's an illusion
I guess it helps knowing there's no where out
I see pictures in the back of my mind
I see pictures in the back of my mind
They're just pictures, in the back of my mind
in the back of my mind
in the back of my mind
(In the back of my mind)
I see pictures
I see pictures in my mind
I see pictures
Oh Jessie I need you
I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through
I know it’s so hard for you
But you will always prevail
So it seems like we’ve been old and we’ve also been so young
I’m so astonished that you have come this far along
But all you need to do is pray
I swear one day
Everything will be ok
But all you have is me and I swear I got your back
And we’ll always be together and we’ll always be on track
I could swear to god I love you
Your killing me with tears
But you’ll never be the same Jessie
And THAT’S soaring dear
Ok
Jessie I wish that
You will still a locket and ill put it in your pocket
Oh I’m sad today is our last day together
I will have to make the best of it
If I could wish upon a star I’d do it,
But we blew it and were sad cause were doing it again
A swear to you I’d go die for you
Take a stab for you
And swing my blades for you
But all you have is me and I swear I got your back
And we’ll always be together and we’ll always be on track
I could swear to god I love you
Your killing me with tears
But you’ll never be the same Jessie
And THAT’S soaring dear
Ok
Ohh Jessie I, I love you
Don’t you remember when?
We went to your parents house to discuss with them,
Where we had been that night and they were scared
They started to cry
But we just laughed and we said our last goodbye
But all you have is me and I swear I got your back
And we’ll always be together and we’ll always be on track
I could swear to god I love you
Your killing me with tears
But you’ll never be the same Jessie
And THAT’S soaring dear
Ok
Jessie where did you go?

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
Light comes
Like a flicker in my left eye
Push, move
Would be perfect if you'd walk by
I've got lots of pictures in my head
You better not turn off the projector, oh
I've got lots of pictures in my head
You better not save them all for later
Maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Could take your picture
Oh, you could get one too
And maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Keep me on, don't switch me off, oh
You can't fight
Oh, what we do what we
Can't do it solo
But you've got what tickles for me
I've got lots of pictures in my head
You better not turn off the projector, oh
And I've got lots of pictures in my head
You better not save them all for later
Maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Could take your picture
Oh, you could get one too
And maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Keep me on, don't switch me off
Maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Could take your picture
Oh, you could get one too
And maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Keep me on, don't switch me off, oh
Keep me on, don't switch me off
Keep me on, don't switch me off
Keep me on, don't switch me off
You better not turn off the projector
Maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Could take your picture
Oh, you could get one too
And maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Keep me on, don't switch me off, oh
Maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
Could take your picture
Oh, you could get one too
And maybe I
Oh, get me on fire
[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

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

And when I'm gone she got me starein' at her (Starein' at her x5)

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

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
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
Pictures on the wall,
sleeping, dreaming.
Memories open my soul,
moving slowly.
And it hits me down so hard, and tears my heart apart.
Can't forget, disappear, wanna scream, no one hears.
So much rage is filling me.
God, please help me,
why did you take him from me?
Show me the way to live my life, to live my life again.
The future looked so good,
shiny, happy.
And you have to destroy it all,
leave me, lonely.
And I need you to explain, all the questions here in my
head,
why you have to fly away, tell me why I can't forget.
God, please help me,
why did you take him from me?
Show me the way to live my life, to live my life again.
Give me the power to go on, to go on.
to go on...to go on...to go on...
Will I ever find a love? Who can tell me?
And I need you to explain all the questions here in my
head,
why you have to fly away, tell me why I can't forget.
God, please help me,
why did you take him from me?
Show me the way to live my life, to live my life again.

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!
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.
(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
The thing that makes me feel the most down
Is the feelin? that I?m livin? in a ghost town
Barn door bangin? in my face
Like tumbleweed I?m rollin? ?round this place
I see you arrivin? at the station
But it?s only in my imagination
So I?m beggin? on my knees
Turn around and save me, baby, please
From this ghost town
I feel like givin? in
Since you left I?m livin? in
An old ghost town
Hey kid, I remember all the laughter
Especially when we woke the mornin? after
Why did you have to go away
Leavin? me to wander every day?
In this ghost town
I feel like givin? in
Since you left I?m livin? in
An old ghost town
We were born to ride
Side by side
We were always reachin? for the stars
And they can still be ours
If you free me from this ghost town
I feel like givin? in
Since you left I?m livin? in
An old ghost town
I feel like givin? in
Since you left I?m livin? in
An old ghost town
I?m livin? in an old ghost town
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
(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.
Here's the picture that we took in Cincinnati
The time we saw that big league 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've 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 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 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 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
What it is I often wonder,
Turning you away.
Listen to that still small voice,
Fade away.
You see only what you want to,
Close your eyes and sleep.
You hear only what you want to,
Clinging to your lies.
(Chorus)
You and I we see things different now
You and I we see things differently.
Close your mouth your words are stolen,
Heard them all before,
Speaking truths you've long forgotten,
Falling to the floor.
You see only what you want to,
Close your eyes and sleep.
You hear only what you want to,
Clinging to your lies.
(Chorus)
I can see everything now that you're so blinded,
I can see everything now thats it's all clear.
I can see everything now that you're so blinded,
I can see everything everything everything everything
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,
My everything,
I'm patiently waiting,
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,
Its what I wanna be,
Oh,oh,oh,
Oh,oh,oh,
Oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh
Don't let me go,
Don't tell you so,
I wanna see something different,
Don't let me go
Don't tell you so,
I wanna be the one to love,
Love,
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 you see just something different,
I just wanna,
See your picture,
See your picture
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,
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
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
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
when i cant see you
your always near
back right pocket
i keep you there
safely hidden
for all those times
when nothing else at all
can get me by
billfold out
deep inside
amongst ID and credit cards
i reach in to pull out
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
or how i feel
billfold out
deep inside
amongst ID and credit cards
i reach in to pull out
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
its so hard spending time away
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
(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
If I saw you
Would you be the same as pictures
Given to me
By those who knew you well
Stands to reason
Though what's inside my head
From the beauty
Oh beauty of this town
Clear the spell from my eyes
Keep your name
Woman please
No waking up from distant slumber
I may not be near but I
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
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'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
If you don't know me please why don't you tell me
cuz I don't want to be with you no more.
The story that you tell please somebody yell
I feel the sound before I hear your voice
A midnight battle, the moon casts a shadow
I swear I won't know of you anymore
From a phone booth, (dime, dyin) tell the truth
I look up through this splint 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
cuz I don't want to be with you no more.
The story that you tell please somebody yell
I feel the sound before I hear your voice
If I thought it possible would you render it impossible
Get as close to darkness as you can
From a phone booth, (dime, dyin) tell the truth
I look up through this splint 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
cuz I don't want to be with you no more.
The story that you tell please somebody yell
I feel the sound before I hear your voice
A Midnight battle, the moon casts a shadow
I swear I won't know of you anymore
From a phone booth, (dime, dyin) tell the truth
I look up through this splint of broken glass
Now you don't got a picture of me anymore
Now you don't got a picture of me anymore
Now you don't got a picture of me anymore
I found a part of what is worth it
And then buried it in pieces
Just to find out
That there´s nothing more relentless
These words are raining down
And I can walk right through
It´s falling
With the sense that it makes
With the sense that it makes
These words are raining down
And I can walk right through
The ground reflects your face
As I step over you
And now that I can see
That there is not much more up to you
I found your heart in your hands
And your mind to my feet
Just get yourself right
This is your chance to choose
Not that you would be an exception
We all have something to lose
It sounds again
Like the drops would hit the ground
Reflecting the faces
Of those left behind
Standing in the streets
He's watching you drain
And it smells like rain again
I know that blood spills from his mouth
But he´s keeping it low
Telling stories of the drowned
May it rain on you
I want to see you washed away
And now that I can see
That there is not much more up to you
I found your heart in your hands
And your mind to my feet
Just get yourself right
This is your chance to choose
Not that you would be an exception
We all have something to lose
May it rain on you
May it wash you away
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
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
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
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
[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
