Montage Lyrics

I've been waiting for the tiger lilies to bloom

I've been staring at a sliver of a daylight moon

Like every day it seems another year's gone by

I watch them grow and disappear

If angels are real just tell me where to fly

Do they get stuck in the same motions just like you and I?

They can't pull me out

It's only me with every doubt

In all the ways

I could write this story

I watch it like a movie

Time wraps around me slowly

Feel it like a heartbeat

Director's cut, just write me a montage scene

Not what I pictured but it's clear

Just let it happen you can't script it out of fear

That simple magic weaves a thread day to day

Like the M train humming me to sleep

A half mile away

If angels are real just tell me where to fly

Do they get stuck in the same motions just like you and I?

They can't pull me out

It's only me with every doubt

In all the ways

I could write this story

I watch it like a movie

Time wraps around me slowly

Feel it like a heartbeat

Director's cut, just write me a montage scene

Director's cut, just write me a montage scene

A sliver of the moon

A sliver of wood

A sliver of hope

A dragonfly wing

We heard the silver train turn on the tracks

The sound of a soft whistle

We watched the train go by

We walked home in the wind

Past the old church

An outline in the last bit of light

And I told you the story about the dragonflies

We fell asleep in your bed

I left the window cracked open

To hear the whistle

I watch it like a movie

Time it wraps around me slowly

Feel it like a heartbeat

Director's cut, just write me a montage scene

We watched the train go by

(Watched it go by)

(Watched it go by)

Director's cut, just write me a montage scene

Fleeting slivers of people's lives

In passing
