lyrics

This is not what I had in mind when I took this photograph
Of a face I never thought could change
‘Cause it was shot on my behalf
But a piece of history was saved for future eyes to see
It’s just the emulsion began to disappear when we agreed to disagree
And as we stepped inside the red dark room
Our eyes were blinded shut
Not from any source of light but from the darkness of our hearts
And as we developed several prints of times we’d spent apart
Our hands could never put a stop to the chemicals we loved
They just lived inside our veins
Bleeding onto paper that was locked and sealed away
Hoping to be exposed again
By the solution that would dissolve our whispering campaign
I put you inside a small black frame and hung you on my wall
Thinking that you’d stay in place without a final curtain call
But this white box has been covered up far too many times
With the marks of former tenants leaving dented little scars
From faces that they used to love and hopefully still do
But who knows where they all ended up, a question of virtue
Asking what to do with the ones you know
But will never ever see again
Unless you both decide that this is the time and place
To put aside the magazines that were filled with words
Heard by other ears and just listen
