lyrics

I took a photograph of the future of what it should've been
It was you, my best friend, one year later with a clear road ahead
I took a photograph of the future of what it should've been
It was her next to me, except she was a little more than just my friend

But it's fine, they're still here still keeping me fed
At the end of the line, that's what's clear inside of my head

But the worst is knowing that there ain't no other reason
Other than I did not know just what to say
And like you I don't know where it is I'm going
But that don't make me feel any more okay

I took a photograph of the future of what it should've been
It was you calling me on a weekend to see me again
I took that photograph of the future when I was so much closer to you
'Cause I think I should be feeling so much more
Now that I know you'll be leaving soon

But these lines that we choose and that we travel
Never seem to coincide in parallel
They twist and turn and curve and reverse direction
In a way that only time can truly tell

I took a photograph of the future in the daytime
I took a photograph of the future in the nighttime
The light from the sun and the light from the moon
Never seem to shine as bright as when they're not there with you
But only in your mind

I took a photograph of the future of what I knew it was going to be
It was me standing here in the mirror thinking about next year
