Pictures of Old Broken Dreams

lyrics

If the world should fall around me
I would find no closure in the end
If the sky starts raining flames, and mountains crumble
I would just pretend that somehow, the ground will break my
Falling for a soul who couldn't
Plant its roots to deeply to begin
Such is the curse of the purest hearts, who can't begin to fathom
When to just keep trying, or when to just give in

I'm wide awake, but I'll be passed out soon
Wake up in the middle of the night in my own room
Look out of the window at a big bright moon
And wonder if somewhere you're looking at it too
I was crushed at dawn, woke up in the morning
You were already long gone

Tell me, when you look at me what do you see
Is it pictures of old broken dreams
Or someone that you could believe in
Tell me, when you look in my eyes do you know
That there's nothing at all in the world
Could make it okay that you're leaving
If there's anything at all I can say
To make you not go away
I want you to know that I'll say it

If the world should fall around me
I would find no closure in the end
If the sky starts raining flames, and mountains crumble
I would just pretend that somehow, the ground will break my
Falling for a soul who couldn't
Plant its roots to deeply to begin
Such is the curse of the purest hearts, who can't begin to fathom
When to just keep swimming, or when to just give in

If there's anything at all I can say
To make you not go away
I want you to know that I'll say it
