|
seal this envelope with a heart that's been |
|
beaten black |
|
beaten blue |
|
beaten all over again |
|
don't leave out a single thing |
|
send it off with wings |
|
an anecdote to ease the pain that you feel |
|
every time that you smile at the mirror |
|
i won't need anymore memories |
|
for the next 50 years i could still write you love songs |
|
i wont need anymore photographs |
|
to remember the color of the clothes you wore that night |
|
hopefully this won't sound as bad |
|
as i'm sure that it is |
|
all results will be lifeless and lead |
|
to an excuse |
|
to never try again, to never try at all |
|
staring up at the ground |
|
because oh how you we tried |
|
and oh how you lied |
|
but how could that be true |
|
i won't need anymore memories |
|
for the next 50 years i could still write you love songs |
|
i won't need anymore photographs |
|
to remember the color that your eyes changed with the color of your hair |
|
my heart is gone |
|
my heart is gray |
