Morning Glory

I meant what I said
About these
Pictures never
Tell the story

(The story)

It hit us harder
Than it should
I rush to leap
But never look
I never could

(I never could)

Fill our thoughts
Up to the brink
I'm quick to act
But never think
And suddenly

(And suddenly)

All our summers
Stare at fluorescents
Watching days go by
Second guessing

I meant what I said
About these
Pictures never
Tell the story

Patiently we wait
In line
And set aside
These warning signs

(These warning signs)

Thought that we
Would be the ones
To equal parts
Greater than sums
Shout from our lungs

(Shout from our lungs)

Potential greater
Than is shown
Regret revealed
In undertones
We should've known

(We should have known)

All our summers
Stare at fluorescents
Watching days go by
Second guessing

I meant what I said
About these
Pictures never
Tell the story

Patiently we wait
In line
And set aside
These warning signs

But now our dreams have
Lost the weight of a guarantee
And waiver on so
Unrecognizably

I meant what I said
About these
Pictures never
Tell the story

Patiently we wait
In line
And set aside
These warning signs

(When I lose my way
I watch the morning glories
Bursting up
From barren soil)

(When I knock my head
Against the sideboard panels
Think of you and wish for
Better days)

But each morning glory
Blooms again
