about

Colvin's demoed Picture to the band shortly before entering the studio, and they loved it so much they made sure to add it to the record.

lyrics

Take a picture won't you please?
The only way that this will last is memories
The way the light falls on your face
The way your smile sits
Will never be the same

And everything you wanted is over today
And everything you now know has gone and it's changed

All we wasted
Left lying in the room
Lies we're chasing
Sleeping in the afternoon
Our eyes are open
The light is pouring in
We may be broken
Just looking to start again

I'll take the blame if you just stop
All the things I thought we were I found out we are not
Now everything is broken, what have we done?
My conscience screams as we're shattered on the floor

Holding tight to
What we've become
We're looking for redemption
To fix what we've done

All we wasted
Left lying in the room
Lies we're chasing
Sleeping in the afternoon
Our eyes are open
The light is pouring in
We may be broken
Just looking to start again

We thought that we'd just call this love
And that, that would be enough
But love's the strongest stuff
It's stronger than we knew
So here's my heart out on the floor
Just lying here begging for more
This hope's the strongest stuff
It's what we long to know

All we wasted
Left lying in the room
Lies we're chasing
Sleeping in the afternoon
Our eyes are open
The light is streaming in
We may be broken
Just looking to start again

All we wasted
Left lying in the room
Lies we're chasing
Sleeping in the afternoon
Our eyes, our eyes are open
The light is streaming in
We may be broken
Just looking to start again
