Photograph Lyrics
take a photograph
and settle down
two and two, not as hard as it looks
better not to burn those books
you're not travelling on a beam of light
and you're not sitting around under house arrest
until you change your mind
not a blink
not a breath
not a sign (x4)
take a photograph
to remind you
of the things you know you will one day forget
take a side effect
as a measure of your progress
take what you give
and give what you take
and as you walk with your breath two feet in front of you in the cold
take a photograph, to have and to hold (x2)
take a photograph
and settle down
two and two, not as hard as it looks
better not to burn those books
you're not travelling on a beam of light
and you're not sitting around under house arrest
until you change your mind
not a blink
not a breath
not a sign (x4)
take a photograph
to remind you
of the things you know you will one day forget
take a side effect
as a measure of your progress
take what you give
and give what you take
and as you walk with your breath two feet in front of you in the cold
take a photograph, to have and to hold (x2)
take a photograph

i think this song is about what most people think it is about. Memories....getting those memories and putting them in your mind keeping them so that oneday when you are alone you can think back to good times and remember than life isnt as cold as it seems. and also about how life isnt as hard as it looks either.
