This Is A Photograph II

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This is a photograph, a dark horse from your past galloping back Open up your mouth and laugh, at all the ugly people living in a photograph [Chorus] If you go reaching for your past, make sure your grip is iron clad Open up your mouth don't laugh, at all the pretty people living in a photograph [Verse 2] This is your father in the West Texas dirt This is your mother young and in a skirt This is time as it's starting to flirt with the abyss now Give me a kiss now [Verse 3] This is a clipper ship, this is its sail This is the hull or hell starting to swell Heaven's empty but can we make it? This is us standing here naked [Verse 4] This is the siren that sounds after a war This is the sky with a murmur of birds This is where we once wеre This is returning to earth [Bridge] And this is what I'll miss about bеing alive And this is what I'll miss after I die This is a photograph This is a photograph This is a photograph This is a photograph [Chorus] If you go reaching for your past, make sure your grip is iron clad Open up your mouth don't laugh, at all the pretty people living in a photograph
