lyrics

I'm more anxious to forget it
than I ever was to learn it
so I'm trading all these drinks
for distorted memories.
I push all of my thoughts
on anyone I want
and imagine who I want them to be
until I start to be believe-
that its true.

Facts are layered in the bullshit
between photographs and trinkets
so I'm breaking down this bulk head
to erode them and forget.
But a telephone call
or sentimental song
forces fragments to align
like an old stained glass
cathedral.

Relive the past
We'll add a little lead between glass.
Panels may change
image stays the same.
If I trust my past
ever memory that I have
I must have faith
hidden in this cathedral.

The church of nostalgia
I pay tithing to
worship the untrue.
Am I even who I am?

Light still filters through the artwork
and illuminates the hardwood
where we stand in rows of pews
and harmonize a tune.
As these intervals move
stories become truth
forcing fragments to align
like and old stained glass
cathedral.

Relive the past
We'll add a little lead between glass.
Panels may change
image stays the same.
If I trust my past
ever memory that I have
I must have faith
hidden in this cathedral.

The church of nostalgia
I pay tithing to
worship the untrue.
Am I even who I am?
