I remember searching for the perfect wars
I was hoping you might change your name
I remember a holster standing next to me
riding on the metro
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a solider standing next to me
riding on the metro
Minutes passed with shallow words.
You were passed as shallow words.
Years have passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
Years have passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
I can see you now
Smiling as you pulled away.
You have passed a shallow word
Years have passed and still I hurt
You have passed a shallow word
Years have passed and still I hurt
I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away.
I emerged in my damn brain
I emerged in London rain
I remember a leather raincoat in my hand
I remember a letter wrinkled in my hand
I remember a night of broken promises.
I remember the night we walked along the Seine.
I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
I love you always through my eyes
I remember the night we walked along the sand
Riding on the Metro.
I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
'I'll love you always' filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the Seine
Riding on the Metro.
I remember the night before the war (was) declared.
I remember the night we walked along the Seine.
I remember the night we walked along the sand.
I remember the night we walked along the Seine.
I was on a pair of strings
I was on a Paris train
I'm alone sitting on my big fat ass
I'm alone Sitting with my empty glass.
I'm alone
Sitting on a broken glass.
I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass.
Is a past dance still a heard?
Years have passed and still the hurt.
Moments passed for shallow words
Years had passed and still I heard.
Minutes passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt.
My four walls
Follow me through my a**.
My four walls
Follow me through my past.
Riding on a missile
Riding on the metro
Smoke and waste your time in France
Spoke of winter time in France
Stroke the thing in your pants
Spoke of winter time in France
Swimming in a puddle of cheese
Swimming through apologies
Swimming through a hollandaise
Swimming through apologies
Swimming through a pile of cheese
Swimming through apologies
You were waiting there,
swimming through a pile of cheese
You were waiting there,
swimming through apologies
You were waiting there,
swimming through a pile of jizz
You were waiting there,
swimming through apologies
You were waiting there, swimming through Apollo cheese.
You were waiting there, swimming through apologies.
You were waiting there
Swimming through a ball of cheese.
You were waiting there
Swimming through apologies.
You're wide
Smiling as you took my hand.
You wore white
Smiling as you took my hand.
