Polaroids last longer

(30 second intro)

(Verse 1)

Boxes pile high upstairs

Papers holding memories

For which I will always care

Take me back to times when I was free

(Chorus)

Polaroids last longerrrrr

Friendships break and fade

Memories are lost

and tossed into the grave

Forgotten to the owner

Taken out of mind

But pictures last forever

And won’t be left behind

(Verse 2)

Dust collects on empty frames

Names I don’t say out loud

We swore we’d never change

Now I don’t know you in this crowd

Closets full of yesterday

Sweaters smell like home

I trace the edges of our days

In moments overexposed

(Bridge)

If I could step inside the frame

I’d stay a little while

Before the cracks, before the pain

Before we learned to hide

I’d hold that moment still

Let the rest just pass us byyyy

’Cause nothing hurts like a life

That’s only in the past

(Guitar solo)

(Chorus)

Polaroids last longerrrrr

Friendships break and fade

Memories are lost

and tossed into the grave

Forgotten to the owner

Taken out of mind

But pictures last forever

And won’t be left behind
