I stand tall
Among those below me
Tunnelvision
I choose what I want to see
What a lonely world
There are statues behind every door
I need you to understand
That I'm not myself anymore
Jaded memories of the things we used to do
Played on repeat, the times I saw right through
Hidden away from me, the things I never knew
I'm so afraid to see how I appear to you
And we talked and we talked and we talked
I was treading water at best
You told me to sink or swim
And let gravity do the rest
You know
We're all lost in our own way
You're not my judge
So who are you to say
When your pedestal
Is razed to the ground
Set so high in your mind
We're all so fucked up
In our own way
You're not my judge
So who are you to say
When your pedestal
Is razed to the ground
You can wear your fucking crown
Does it make you feel happy?
To know that you were right
Jaded memories of the things we used to do
Played on repeat, the times I saw right through
Hidden away from me, the things I never knew
(Hello my old friend it's nice to know you
Here are some things that I'd like to show you)
I'm so afraid to see how I appear to you
(Remember the time that I said I need you
Those days are gone you need to leave too)
Forgot the rules
So I failed the test
To heal is to accept the knowledge
Of how long you have left
No room to breathe in this cage
But if you tell me honestly
Then maybe I can see
See what you've seen all along
And then maybe finally
You could come back to me
Back to me
Jaded memories of the things we used to do
Played on repeat, the times I saw right through
I made love with my girlfriend so many times on this album. It is incredible. The songs are so beautiful and the rythm so well coordinated for this kind of moment... Anyway, always good to listen to it in the bus too Faugus
I still remember when this album released and all the intense euphoric melancholy that accompanied me while listening. You and Yours always reminds me of Christmas. Love this band and album! revelator684
vivid memory of this album is that I listened to it during my (I think) final exams at school before I graduated. something about it was perfect and I did pretty well so thanks cloudkicker very cool katsumashi
