Photographic Memories Songtext
Hope is very hard when
Hope is very hard when we
Put ourselves out to sea

We've taken all the right steps
Taken all the right steps
But which doors open with our keys?

All the neon fires fired in our brain
We were thinking that our world was in danger
Then we entered the fray

All the rest they could not compare
Your smiled said that you cared,
And it felt so wonderful

Now all these memories,
I can't wash them away
They are destined to stay
And they feel like heaven

Those photographic memories
And they'll die on with me

All your thoughts I did
Cherish them all
I helped you up when you'd fall
You did the same for me, too

Into my life, you were Right-right on time
You must've been a sign
And now I'm left with all these

Photographic memories
And they'll die on with me

Your eyes
Burnt two giant holes
Straight in my heart, my love spills out
Conquers you whole, now we're swimming around

In the love
And it soaks into our skin
Though mine is metal, and yours is flesh,
Our differences make this the best

Love in the town that we skip to,
Every destination
We're putting on a show, everywhere we go
Sparks fly from our lips
It's an electric kiss

Static's abound, frequency sounds
And in and we dance around
I'm generating lots of love
Holding your hand

They can hear our motors turning 'cross the land

All our love, well it
Put us at ease
And it somehow made time freeze
And it seemed like it'd never end

Both of our hearts seemed to
Intertwine
We met for the first time
And now I can't stop thinking about those

Photographic memories
And they'll die on with me

Hope is very hard when
Hope is very hard when you
Lost the thing you had before

I took all the rights steps
I took all the right steps
And I unlocked the right doors

All the neon fires died out in my brain
Now I've grown onto that feeling of
Pain
Why did you have to go?

All they rest, they could
Never compare
Your smile showed me that you cared
And it felt so wonderful

All those memories I can't
Wash them away
They are embedded in my brain
And I am all alone now
With these

Photographic memories
And they'll die on with me
