"Photograph" lyrics

Take a picture of your life
Put it on your bedroom wall
Check on it from time to time
Make sure that you don't lose heart

Take a picture of your life
Frame by frame
Your profiles of courage
Name by name

Put a picture of your sadness
Next to one from better days
It's a holy madness
There's holy joy and there's holy pain

You came to bum a smoke
We stayed together as the seasons pass
And you left with a story
And a shoebox of photographs

Lightning
The cameras are flashing
The moments are passing
The proof of it all
Lightning
Petty and tragic
The horror
The magic
Remember it all
