Witness - Lower Case lyrics
Your rating:
I sleep inside the moment that we stood upon a frozen lake When we were still in love and only spoke in lower case I live with memories of waking to your shoulder blades That overstay their welcome and they very seldom go away Somewhere inside your body is a photograph of us Whoever framed the subject wasn't holding back enough Cause every blemish that we buried was in bloom again When they decided that they'd try to magnify it through a lens We picked names for the garden in between your hips That harbored every dream that drifted far enough to seem amiss She exists when I shut my eyes for long enough Her tiny fingers cling to mine but when I blink they've gone to dust I don't suppose that you remember back before the war When I could call the bluff that hid behind your poker face And even though you've ever only called me "baby" once I heard a ghost that spoke the words you'd never say in lower case "Darling don't forget that I'll be leaving in the morning But, baby don't you worry, cause I'm coming back home"
