Forever Got Shorter - Braid

Let’s go undercover

Like young lovers should

Cause I can kiss you better

Then this letter could

And you say

At least under

These covers

I listen to you

And all this music about you

I hope it finds you smiling again

Till never begins

Or till forever ends

I’ll still be lost in poetics

Or lost in the mail

Can nobody tell you

These guys have a passion for fashion

But are sincere like a statue

And if you have to choose

I am gonna lose

I always do

We always do

Nostalgia is drunk

And frustration can be gorgeous

But can i keep my mouth shut

(I listen to you

And all this music about you

I hope it finds you smiling again

Till never begins

Or till forever ends)

Cause sometimes gorgeous can be frustration

When your life is nothing

But an honorable mention

On a radio, on the radio

Maybe i’m a baby

But i think it’s time to grow

You’re everything i live for

-ever got shorter

I’ll know on a radio better

I’m a quitter than a starry

Tortured soul

The lips I kissed now shape songs of sadness

Hold me dear when I’m away

And I’ll know when I hear your name

Even if I have to sing it to myself
