From the recording The Shearing
Lyrics
Showing old pictures at family parties
Zooming in just to make sure
Who’s who
Who’s who
I’ve seen people around me deteriorate
They used to dance, now they’re laying down
It blows my mind like a kid speaking an age-old language
Looking at old pictures at family parties
Zooming in just to make sure
Who’s who
Who’s who
With us an old picture is worth a thousand words
Old tales from the land but take a look at my hands
Our lives ain’t been the same, it’s easy to tell
Our lives ain’t been the same, it’s easy to tell
Same old names, no I don’t know them
We stare off into the distance cause our lives ain’t been the same
No fear, no shame in our silence cause thank god
Our lives ain’t been the same
