Distant Memory Lyrics by The XCERTS

Scatterbrain

0

Well I was outside in the snow
When I first felt this pain
Picturesque was the skyline
I could feel the burning shame
For letting love go
To endure the cold alone
Alone alone alone

Now!
I am drunk on your absence
At least you've got friends
(inaudible)
(inaudible)
(inaudible) like I don't remember
But I do, oh I do

And I'll be
A distant memory
Why can't you see
That I'll be
A thing of the past
A postcard or a photograph
A distant memory is all I can be

Some will call me the daughter
(inaudible)
I'm like an old dress tattered and torn
That she doesn't want to wear
No more
Of this I say

I'll be
A distant memory
Why can't you see
That I'll be
A thing of the past
A postcard or a photograph
A distant memory is all I can be

This is
Ugly
I don't want to be
Awake with me
This is
Ugly
I don't want to be
A distant memory
