Little Pictures Lyrics
Well, here's a little picture for
your wallet and your mind.
It's just us when we were searching
for that blue we could not find.
It's us with padded pockets, dazzling
futures in their unpolluted smiles.
Reality pushed back by just the
thinkings of the latest styles.
Well, I'm nineteen, and I'm catching
myself living in the past.
Walls with wilted poloroids and friends
that wouldn't last.
And everything that was promising has
come, and now I find.
So, here's a little picture for your wallet
and your mind.
It's just one of many pictures I must
learn to leave behind.
Here's a little picture for your wallet
and your mind.
Seems what we wanted didn't like what
we would find.
Seems you didn't listen when I told
you what I mean.
Futility is reminisced in shades of velvetine.
All seats of fearing of our histories.
Memories fill our lungs, drowning us in
different futures down another rung.
Well, my voice cracks at the thought of
you, so innocent and blind.
So, here's a little picture for your wallet
and your mind.
It's just one of many pictures I must
learn to leave behind.
Little pictures.
your wallet and your mind.

this is obvious - this guy just feels that his life is flying by and he is always focusing on the past, except he is only 19 and he isn't supposed to feel this way. but i think that every 19 year old feels this way.
forgive me if there are any errors and feel free to post any corrections.
i also believe this is only john k.
i like this song. . .this is a good song
does anyone know what this song was released on?
obscured: it is from John K. Samson's solo cassette tape "Slips and Tangles" from 1993.
My god I love this song. I am so scared that the photograph I have in my draw near me will be a little picture I have to leave behind at some time in my life. And that time might be soon. I dont know what to do.
