Memoir Of Our Silent Film Lyrics

with black and white eyes
and colored movie screens
we're acting the lead
in a crowd of extra scenes
who knows the role better than i
(i only read what's given to me)
i guess it's a sign but what do i know

i will hold onto pictures saved in case
of sudden change in your mood
and i'll scream until my lungs bleed out
with the chance that you will come
around for me one more time

this feeling's overrated (she said)
but it's the feeling that kept me going,
that kept me safe like the blanket you held
as a child i'm your security
i'm also your insecurities
but i'm dying to be let inside your head

i will hold onto pictures saved in case
of sudden change in your mood
and i'll scream until my lungs bleed out
with the chance that you will come
around for me one more time

these pictures i saved i saved for you
the way it feels if you only knew
i gave it my best i tried so hard
waiting for you
it cost my heart

i will hold onto pictures saved in case
of sudden change in your mood
and i'll scream until my lungs bleed out
with the chance that you will come
around for me one more time

and i'm breathing just for you
and i'm bleeding because of you
