stagnant Songtext
von avery pickup

cling to every detail
burn it in my mind
laughter, excitement, the way that you′d smile
cause feelings can't be memorised

people you lose along the way
these are the times we′ll never re-live
but i'm still stuck living in the past
cause i haven't got enough future to give

and i wish i could tell you
i was stagnant for far too many years
i wish you knew that you
are always there to calm those fears

and i wish i could explain
how pointless everybody else seems
cause when i′m loving you
somebody listens to me


spiral of the melody
sings a different song
when promises you made of right
slowly fade to wrong

try to cling to you
every way
but hopeless longing
can′t make you stay

and i wish i could tell you
i was stagnant for far too many years
i wish you knew that you
were always there to calm those fears

and i wish i could explain
how pointless everybody else seemed
cause when i loved you
somebody listened to me

you made me want to start writing again
and you were the angel singing songs in my head
but i can't live a lie knowing you′re never coming back
when every single memory gives me reason to attack

the chill of the night
when we looked to the light
realising we might be free


the wake of the day
i was turning your way
but you weren't looking at me

rose coloured glasses
that green and white jacket
thoughts that could never be

you′re turning away
now it's too late to say
i wish that you could see

that i cling to every detail
burn it in my mind
laughter, excitement, the way that you′d smile
cause feelings can't be memorised

people you lose along the way
these are the times we'll never relive
but i′m still stuck living in the past
cause you took my future and

i wish i could tell you
i was stagnant for far too many years
i wish you knew that you
are always there to calm those fears

and i wish i could explain
how pointless everything seems
because i loved you
but i don′t think you believed me

i don't think you believed me
i don′t think you believed me
