[Verse 1]
Glittering lake under a splintering dock
I get a piece of it to take home
And I pick at the wood under skin
Sunlight slipping and spinning new days as I stood
[Pre-Chorus]
In a moment, I'll try to recapture
Through mushrooms and speeding through stop signs and bleeding
I wish there were things I never understood
[Chorus]
The time before knowing
The silence preceding a knock at the door
The light till shadows cast on me over and over again
How to be smaller again
To pretend
[Verse 2]
A beautiful wake, I cried too long and too late
After the service, for the kids running fast
Through the manicured lawn, untouched by what had been lost
Just for a moment, though I know it'll pass
[Pre-Chorus]
Losing is so long
All my love stuck in a time that will always be gone
Glittering lake under a splintering dock
I get a piece of it to take home
And I pick at the wood under skin
Sunlight slipping and spinning new days as I stood
[Pre-Chorus]
In a moment, I'll try to recapture
Through mushrooms and speeding through stop signs and bleeding
I wish there were things I never understood
[Chorus]
The time before knowing
The silence preceding a knock at the door
The light till shadows cast on me over and over again
How to be smaller again
To pretend
[Verse 2]
A beautiful wake, I cried too long and too late
After the service, for the kids running fast
Through the manicured lawn, untouched by what had been lost
Just for a moment, though I know it'll pass
[Pre-Chorus]
Losing is so long
All my love stuck in a time that will always be gone
