Traces Lyrics
Daylight can never really hide what’s alive
I know it's hard sometimes
For you to tell where you end
And where the world begins
You do your best to avoid assimilation
Guess that's the best you can do
And though the parts of it that matter change
All traces disintegrate
At night
My mind's exhausted and
Drained out of thought
And can't get back up
And when you know
How few things there are worth knowing
I suppose anyone who tries could forget
Responding now
To trains that crash before you
Never thought crashing could happen to you
And though the parts of it that matter change
All traces disintegrate
I know it's hard sometimes
For you to tell where you end
And where the world begins
Guess that's the best you can do
All traces disintegrate
My mind's exhausted and
Drained out of thought
And can't get back up
And when you know
How few things there are worth knowing
I suppose anyone who tries could forget
To trains that crash before you
Never thought crashing could happen to you
All traces disintegrate

I love this song's outro./

This song is about how life never stands still and in time, averything you do today will be unimportant and forgotten. It's about how we all must adapt to today and forget about yesterday.

I love the line
I know it's hard sometimes For you to tell where you end And where the world begins
Its something we all need to know.

Those lines remind me of EELS - Climbing To The Moon
Got a sky that looks like heaven Got an earth that looks like shit And it's getting hard to tell where What I am ends And what they're making me begins

At night my mind get's on this train of thought I can't get back off

i love this song's intro./
