Look at the picture
You sit and stare
At the poster on the wall
And think about when
Nelly was a bird
Lifehouse was hanging by the moment
And it was always raining in
Aaron's head.
Look at the photo on the cover
And remember when
you had too many issues
And if you would have met her sooner.
A still frame of life
Captured in a picture
A moment a memory to far gone
It was all or nothing
And here's to tonight
Borjk was in a state of emergency
Uncle Cracker followed us
And yellow was the color of the stars
A still frame of life
Captured in a picture
A moment a memory to far gone

through every town I chose to flee
into every house I tried to make my home
the only thing that
YOU CAN'T FORGET
You hold your chin up,
higher than you should...
you have so much more pride,
than I ever could.
You walk so
Whisper wind, through the remaining chimes
distant, weak.
The house is peeling, like my skin
The sun is blaring, like my mind.
