Lyrics to Take Down
Take down my picture of you
For many reasons which we know now
Leaning on your hands
Looking that way
It was a shakedown
So clear to me now
Echo through the final days
You were thinking about somebody else
Are you still awake? (Scenes get in the way)
Did you ever look down (Weighing what you wanna say)
At my sleeping face?
Is there really no other way?
I wish I knew why we pretend
Why did I stay?
A curtain dancing by the wind
Are you awake?
Still, no one sees
The person they're sitting across
I'm at a loss
Are you still awake? (Scenes get in the way)
Did you ever look down (Weighing what you wanna say)
At my sleeping face?
Is there really no other way?
For many reasons which we know now
Leaning on your hands
Looking that way
It was a shakedown
So clear to me now
Echo through the final days
You were thinking about somebody else
Are you still awake? (Scenes get in the way)
Did you ever look down (Weighing what you wanna say)
At my sleeping face?
Is there really no other way?
I wish I knew why we pretend
Why did I stay?
A curtain dancing by the wind
Are you awake?
Still, no one sees
The person they're sitting across
I'm at a loss
Are you still awake? (Scenes get in the way)
Did you ever look down (Weighing what you wanna say)
At my sleeping face?
Is there really no other way?
