lacuna Lyrics

Some places seem familiar

Through the window of a train as you fly by

You don’t know why

Like a frozen beach in Montauk

Or the girl who’s face you almost recognize

But don’t know why (why)

The kind of eyes that could fold you

Drop everything just to hold you

Nowadays I don’t even know you

Nowadays I wish I could show you

Where I grew up

Frost snuffs the blaze

The only ashes are memories

Two weeks of summer days

I wish you were here

But we’d probably just cry

And I don’t need to dampen

The tracks that just dried

Fountains turn to mirrors

Turn to ashes

And nothing can stop it

From happening

I don’t want this pain to define me

But the sun in my eyes is blinding

I don’t want to lose sight of the spark

Though I can’t help but feel that I’ve missed the mark

Fountains turn to mirrors

Turn to ashes

Nothing can stop it

From happening

Fountains turn to mirrors

Turn to ashes

Nothing can stop it

From happening
