By the harbour, I harbour the strangest memories
|
Older than I could ever be
|
Stranded in nostalgia
|
So tonight I’ll try harder
|
But it's hard to fix this spotlight on me
|
In a cast that's taken places
|
I’m unsure of where I want to be
|
|
Stand up,
|
stand up,
|
And stand down,
|
I'll climb El Capitan,
|
And jump off to cheers from the crowd,
|
|
Stand up,
|
Stand up,
|
And stand out,
|
And I hope you take your camera,
|
To photograph my tears as they hit the ground,
|
|
No one even listens
|
The same way that no one ever laughs
|
I'm taking the car out of the snow
|
And wondering where the summer went to
|
Circled by your secrets
|
I'm hoping they don't include me
|
At least I'm in good company
|
Because there's no one else around
|
Except me
|
|
Stand up,
|
Stand up,
|
And stand out,
|
I'll climb El Capitan,
|
Just to watch the world slow itself,
|
|
Stand up,
|
Stand up,
|
And stand out,
|
And I hope you took your camera
|
Silence makes the loudest sound
|
|
It seems far too easy to say the same things
|
I’ll choose my own way to use my life up
|
Finally found a new way
|
Say the same things
|
In imaginary ways
|
I’ll use my life up
|
|
You were looking at pictures in the distance
|
Hoping to see the future in your pictures
|
Of the distance hoping to see
|
The future looking at pictures in the distance
|
|
Hoping to see the future through your pictures
|
Of the distance Hoping to see,
|
|
The future looking at pictures in the distance
|
Hoping to see the future in your pictures,
|
|
Of the distance Hoping to see
|
The future looking at pictures in the distance
|
Hoping to see the future in your pictures
|
