5 Year Reunion 歌詞
5 Year Reunion - Desa
Another youthful plan gets dragged ashore
One more angel fails her pregnancy test
Diploma dangles amid grade school photos
Yearbook autographs are my only connection
The disappearing ink signatures are like fossils of now
I've driven stories into the ground
Lost track of faces I swore I'd always remember
Childhood left without a sound
I stare at old drawings
And things I've written down and I think
The disappearing ink sketches must be from another world
Nine years ago I felt like I'd be young forever
Now phantom former loves have apartments with no address
This shapeless poem
Throws new shadows as it stretches
Farther across my lined paper life
Another color fades from memory
One more dream gets tangled and threatens to drown
Kisses sparkle between cloudy weekdays
We waste for a rent check
It's checkmate for most kids
We play by the rules but it's someone else's game
How I miss the secret sounds
A fluttering eyelash or a dance floor collision
Childhood left without a sound
Our eyes were stuck on angels as
The plane went down in the distance
The search and rescue future still has much to figure out
Nine years ago I felt like I'd be young forever
Now phantom former loves have apartments with no address
This shapeless poem throws new shadows as it stretches
Farther across my lined paper life
If I knew then what I know now
I'd know this thought is over
Why waste time on time machines
They don't exist or make you younger
