Picture in a Frame

from Snakes from the Pet Shop Fire by The Night Hobs

/

lyrics

Try to drown away the memories, using booze to kill the pain
So I have no recollection, of who is right and who's to blame
I've been hurting so bad since you've been gone, my motivation wanes
And the only thing keeping me alive, is a Picture in a Frame

I brought you some flowers hoping you'd come back again
Now the flowers have all wilted and my heart will do the same
The world keeps on turning, and the seasons they do change
But for me all time is frozen, like a Picture in a Frame

And I remember your eyes on our very first night in an upstate studio
And I remember those lies on our very last night on a downtown city road
No matter how many times we were out of our minds I never thought you’d go
But things weren’t always perfect, like they were in our photo

Grass grows high on my front lawn, as I'm waiting here in vain
And the house has gone to ruins, and my luck is down the drain
I can't tell if that’s the storm outside beating on my window pane
Or the sound of my own tear drops, falling on the Picture Frame?

And I remember your eyes on our very first night in an upstate studio
And I remember those lies on our very last night on a downtown city road
No matter how many times I was out of my mind I never thought you’d go
But things weren’t always perfect, like they were in our photo

Try to drown away the memories, using booze to kill the pain
So I have no recollection, of who is right and who's to blame
I've been hurting so bad since you've been gone, my motivation wanes
And the only thing keeping me alive, is a Picture in a Frame
And the only thing keeping me alive, is a Picture in a Frame
