lyrics

The day I met you my whole world was wrong
The day I lost you I dreamed this song
The days before will never be anymore
The days yet to come have all come and gone

WE'RE POSING FOR PICTURES OF THE DEAD
CARVING INTO WAX THE SOUNDS WE'VE SAID
WRITING DOWN THE STORIES LEFT UNREAD
ALL WE SEE AND HEAR WILL DISAPPEAR
LIKE THE PICTURES IN MY HEAD

The day I touched you
My whole world broke down
The day I kissed you I was nowhere to be found
The days before then never came again
The days from now on are only light and sound

WE'RE POSING FOR PICTURES OF THE DEAD
CARVING INTO WAX THE SOUNDS WE'VE SAID
WRITING DOWN THE STORIES LEFT UNREAD
ALL WE SEE AND HEAR WILL DISAPPEAR
LIKE THE PICTURES IN MY HEAD

I pray the fates will keep us alive
That we will find some way to survive
Will we roam the wastes or seek shelter inside
Living with old photographs
Of strangers who have died

WE'RE POSING FOR PICTURES OF THE DEAD
CARVING INTO WAX THE SOUNDS WE'VE SAID
WRITING DOWN THE STORIES LEFT UNREAD
ALL WE SEE AND HEAR WILL DISAPPEAR
LIKE THE PICTURES IN MY HEAD
