photos - silvi lyrics

[intro]
i promise this one’s happier

[verse 1]
in a gallery outside the living room
hangs a photo with the scent of perfume
from back when i smiled and had short hair
and thought the worst pain in the world was scr*ping your knee
on the sidewalk
a girl with dreams that flew like dandelions
that i blew into the wind
and i’d be lying if i said that i’m not jealous of that girl now
‘cause my mother once told me under an evening moon
that to her i was perfect and i was confused what she meant
‘cause to me, i’m a mess
trapped inside the body of a pale, frail girl
oh what was my world back then?
long walks and carelessness
and dancing in the last rays of the afternoon sun
falling in love with
pastel roses before they wilted away
what i’m trying to say is

[chorus]
photos
they are memories
of times we laughed and cried and smiled
for the camera
take a picture of this moment
before it fades away
before the light’s all wrong and the minute’s gone by
cause photos are just captures of our crazy lives
(crazy lives, crazy, crazy lives)

[verse 2]
in a gallery
in the shelter of my mind
hangs a photo from a night in july
from back when i thought seventh grade would be hard
and i cried when i got a b
didn’t know what it means to know who you are
i was excited to turn 13
but now i know
i didn’t know anything; still don’t know many things
i’m just happy to be alive
and i’m happy to have survived
and i’m hoping to stay alive for many more years
my hair in the wind
i didn’t know where to begin
so i posed on a cliff overlooking the sunset
what i’m trying to say is

[bridge]
so pose for the camera
remember to focus
on important things in your life
just smile, smile, smile!
life can be so blurry
so don’t you ever worry
if you don’t get the picture right the first time
‘cause photos are just captures of our
