lyrics

your face is so so white
the eraser did its job
if i didn’t know
then i wouldn’t know
your eyes were so so blue

i dropped it all inside
and then i sealed the box
and then i lit the fuse
i kicked off the bomb
and let it all go to hell

and there’s no sense
in any of this
what good’s a memory
without a face or a voice?
and it’s all smudged
looks like the ink has run
on all the half-drawn sketches
i stored inside my head

so it’s like a horror show
it’s all i’ve got to show
in these silent films
you’re always faceless
but somehow i know it’s you

you try to speak to me
for all i can tell you are screaming
of stolen things
broken dreams
and mistakes i am making
and there’s no sense
in any of this
what good’s a memory
without a face or a voice?
and it’s all smudged
looks like the ink has run
on all the half-drawn sketches
i stored inside my head

your face is so so white
the eraser did its job
if i didn’t know
then i wouldn’t know
your eyes were so so blue
