Polaroid Lyrics

I've got all my pictures on the wall

Memories of it all

Taken by a polaroid camera

That camera's probably gone

I think we lost it when we moved places

And now it's resting at the bottom of a landfill

Or in the bottom of a box that I'll never

Look in again

And now I sit here, staring at the ceiling

It's been years, I haven't done a thing

I try to forget, but the truth still stings

Those polaroids are stained by the pain of everything

That happened then and now

Those memories are hurting me and keeping me from doing anything

To get better somehow

I feel like it's all damaged

By the floods of hurt coming in

My dad and I don't talk like we should

Cause of everything that's happened

And I remember getting high in bathrooms

All the kids were joining in

Now I get high in my bedroom

Alone, the pressure was comfortable to me

And now I sit here, staring at the ceiling

(I sit and stare)

It's been years, I haven't done a thing

(There's noone, there's noone there)

I try to forget, but the truth still stings

(On the TV they call for their mothers)

Those polaroids are stained by the pain of everything

(But I'm alone and she's gone away and so I obey)

That happened then and now

(Anything they say)

Those memories are hurting me and keeping me from doing anything

(Anything they say)

To get better somehow
