lyrics

i found a few of your things here
that you must have forgot
it was piled away into a corner, it wasn't a lot
just a candle, an old T-shirt and couple CDs
i found this polaroid picture that you took of your feet

it's a past i never really think about
it seems so out of reach

do you wonder what happened, or just never look back?
those times are fossils in the ground so long
that they've turned to sand and
you could dig up the pieces for clues to our past
try to take them all the way they never come out intact

tonight i'll through this stuff again say
'tomorrow i'll go ahead and throw it all away'
but then i again i trick myself
into thinking maybe someday ...
and i've got the shelf space anyway

the fossil record from those years
is mostly buried from view
the layers: time, a little distance and relationships too
all i have are these relics
they're all i've got
while i don't dig them up that often i think of them a lot

and you give yourself away
