Photographic Memory Lyrics
I look on the back of the picture
Just a short synopsis with year and date
We look so perfect,
But the truth is
I remember it was killing me
We lie face down,
Hand-in-hand
There’s no regrets
Taped to the back
I got lost on the ride home
With a chance to escape this hold
You’re the reason this city feels just like home
When we’re together
With you by my side
A camera can make all time stand still.
And make this moment perfect.
What our minds think looking back
Is that we’re never coming back
There’s no use for this burnt out match
I pace the hallway with one name on my mind
The only name, that mattered so much
Is the one whose words I crushed
There’s no use for this burnt out match
A dozen puzzle pieces fall onto the floor
Wanting more is all I ask for
I got lost on the ride from
Seeing you
I was too busy thinking of you
If only you knew
This photograph doesn’t speak the truth
If only you knew
Blinded by,
Light on the other side
If only you knew
Just a short synopsis with year and date
We look so perfect,
But the truth is
I remember it was killing me
We lie face down,
Hand-in-hand
There’s no regrets
Taped to the back
I got lost on the ride home
With a chance to escape this hold
You’re the reason this city feels just like home
When we’re together
With you by my side
A camera can make all time stand still.
And make this moment perfect.
What our minds think looking back
Is that we’re never coming back
There’s no use for this burnt out match
I pace the hallway with one name on my mind
The only name, that mattered so much
Is the one whose words I crushed
There’s no use for this burnt out match
A dozen puzzle pieces fall onto the floor
Wanting more is all I ask for
I got lost on the ride from
Seeing you
I was too busy thinking of you
If only you knew
This photograph doesn’t speak the truth
If only you knew
Blinded by,
Light on the other side
If only you knew

"You’re the reason this city feels just like home When we’re together"
I love this one tooo. I'm excited to see them april 12th. and @ warped tour '08.
This Is So Nice, But It's Self Explanatory. Hopefully I'll See Them At Warped Tour As Well.
We look so perfect, But the truth is I remember it was killing me

I LOVE this song. And these guys are amazing live. Especially when they did this song!
"Theres no use for this burnt out match"
That line is so powerful and badass. Top 3 song off this cd.
