lyrics

The fabric of a memory has always scared me,
Like the failure of a barrier built to save me,
One glance at the monster in the back room,
My past is the dinosaur I run from,
But the wind begins to push me through places unseen,
And the fog horn calls me out to dark seas,
With white rain at the break of every Monday,
Real pain is pulled through every doorway,
So come on, come on, your love is notorious,
For us, oh please, don’t leave, it would bury us memories,
Some say a joyful noise revives a broken accordion,
I say one rainy day and we may not see the sun again,
The time has come for us to meet our maker,
The moon and the sun are both getting colder and colder,
The comfort of hysteria, the soothing mad rush,
The hands of nostalgia, I feel her soft touch,
And white rain only falls on absent Sundays,
Real shame is carried for a couple decades,
So come on, come on, your love is notorious,
For us, oh please, don’t leave, it would bury us memories,
Some say a joyful noise revives a broken accordion,
So play, play, rainy day and we may not see the sun again,
The time has come for us to meet our maker,
The moon and the sun are both getting colder and colder,
The life I love, its days grow shorter and shorter,
When the songs are sung then I will meet my maker.
Anger will unleash and bring the end of every season,
I despise the habits of my past and I repeat them.
