Dolly Zoom Lyrics

Feels like that means something

Took our picture when our hair was too long

Used to look so much better than now

Trouble is remembering what was said

The colored pages of the script that we dismissed

A shadow cast, that you never knew me when I was young

We never threw anything away (just in case)

Stand up straight

Remember when we were all so eager just to get somewhere new?

I know we knew

(bent into some unnatural strain)

Animate inanimate, like watching just before it starts to fall

Like tucking in my shirt cause I knew this was gonna be serious this time

(like messing up the order of the answers on our hands, what might we pull off)

Leaning towards windows while it grows

Learning words from how we think they're being used,

And using them to mean what they don't really mean

Leaving home with it pocketed when we really needed it,

Returning to discover that we hadn't left with anything

(return to being left alone)

Stay awake

Arm in a cast, you broke it falling in slow motion

We never knew that we could take it, we take it, we take it away

Technically, light's the only thing that we can see

Have you ever thought about what that really means?

The sky, so lit up at night, has already passed us by

Has already had its life

Lived some benign analogy

Some asinine ontology
