[Verse 1]
Nose to nose I hold you so close in the moment
Though I know I feel it slipping away
I told you to shut your mouth when you started talking
About passing years, passing days
I've been having visions of you as a baby
Maybe part of it is all in my head
I don't think I understand time as a line
I wasn't meant to live it like this I guess
And I don't know how you people do it
See it all without the urge to fall right through it
[Verse 2]
Crack open a photo book
Sit alone at 20 and look for a sign that I was there
Staring to the ceiling and contemplate the feeling
Of total obsoletion, dust, and despair
[Chorus]
And yet I can't stop trying
To hold every beautiful thing in my hands
I suck the pulp until I choke on what was never meant to last
And still I hope, although I know I’m never gonna get it all back
Nose to nose I hold you so close in the moment
Though I know I feel it slipping away
I told you to shut your mouth when you started talking
About passing years, passing days
I've been having visions of you as a baby
Maybe part of it is all in my head
I don't think I understand time as a line
I wasn't meant to live it like this I guess
And I don't know how you people do it
See it all without the urge to fall right through it
[Verse 2]
Crack open a photo book
Sit alone at 20 and look for a sign that I was there
Staring to the ceiling and contemplate the feeling
Of total obsoletion, dust, and despair
[Chorus]
And yet I can't stop trying
To hold every beautiful thing in my hands
I suck the pulp until I choke on what was never meant to last
And still I hope, although I know I’m never gonna get it all back
