We get in our own way tripping on our feet
Filling up our heads too much with words too hard to speak
Drowning in a place where the night can not escape
Come in our self into the town
Explore against the page
Caught in a phrase an echo in our minds
A flash a flood and it's burned into our eyes
I can't explain enough and I won't let it last the night
I'll show you that the image is still there unseen
It's darkest before the light if we shut our eyes to see
The things that we have lost inside the lines between
Between the black and white where everything goes grey
And everything's unsaid undone and the negative bleeds away
To reveal the memory that we've waited for so long for
The image shifts and the acid drips
Down the paper to the floor
Caught in a phrase an echo in our minds
A flash a flood and it's burned into our eyes
I can't explain enough and I won't let it last the night
I'll show you that the image is still there unseen
It's darkest before the light if we shut our eyes to see
The things that we have lost inside the lines between
We're so nervous to say if we we've let too much in
If we if we were out of focus or out of frame
I know it's a moment of truth if a recollection face reality
Or if it's lost forever
I can't explain enough and I won't let it last the night
I'll show you that the image is still there unseen
It's darkest before the light if we shut our eyes to see
The things that we have lost inside the lines between
I can't explain enough and I won't let it last
The image is still there unseen
