Steve Albini - Shoe Box lyrics

Memories in a busted shoebox underneath my bed Some words of a sweetness in pencil with dull lead A picture of me with a smile that I'm not faking I wish things were the way they are, when the picture was taken When the picture was taken, oh yeah Black and white slow motion flash back, a spin around the head A vision in the night, me as a kid I picture myself with a smile And that will be the way Snapshot home Out in the ether heart beat That will be the way I get home Pounding the ether, machine gun hey hey Milestone ticking time bomb, a fade to nothing more Hope not to be forgotten, drawing off the shore A vanishing man in the sand and I'm forsaken I wish things were the way they are, when the picture was taken When the picture was taken awwww And that will be the way Snapshot home Out in the ether heart beat That will be the way I get home Pounding the ether, machine gun hey hey And that will be the way Snapshot home Out in the ether heart beat That will be the way I get home Pounding the ether, machine gun hey hey When the picture was taken
