lyrics

HOME MOVIES

Maybe you should open you eyes
Since you can’t face what you see anymore
A reel of home movies unwinds inside
An endless loop from then to now, back again
What to do with all this time
While others go on making the world turn
Stuck with what you don’t want to see
There’s nothing left for you but self-pity
One last dance, your last smile
Now just a still with a date printed below
Getting smaller in the rearview mirror
You’re waving goodbye but I can’t get out
What to do with all this time
Whenever these visions come you can call
Stuck with what you don’t want to see
I see you turn around and walk, walk away

The guilt of letting go, the fear of being left behind
The pain of letting go, the fear of missing the train
Did I leave, did I leave or did you stay behind

To live in denial’s just fine
Until the day you find
Buried under a pile
Forgotten handwritten lines
So sit alone on the kitchen-floor
And cry your eyes out

The guilt of letting go, the fear of being left behind
The pain of letting go, the fear of missing the call
Who’s trying to tell you what exactly are you missing
Did I leave, did I leave or did you stay behind
