Hand in hand by the burning car I can feel the heat from the flames
Black smoke in the firelight, the autumn breeze comes in waves
What does it all matter, the wheels keeps turning anyway
I could use a break from myself, can someone else drive for a change
Oh you must know now
About all the things I’d keep if I could forget it all
I’m just momentary dust
Holding shape against the wall
I can see a spark in your eyes when you explain the future away
I can smile and be glad but I can’t see so far ahead
I’ve been here before, guess I’ll still be here in the end
Carved into stone but dissolving nonetheless
Oh you must know now
About all the things I’d keep if I could forget it all
I’m just momentary dust
Holding shape against the wall
And I’m not upset
Things can’t be perfect
Is there no secret to it?
I’ll take your word for it
And I’m not upset
Things can’t be perfect
Is there no secret to it?
‘cause I can’t keep this up
Oh you must know now
About all the things I’d keep if I could forget it all
I’m just momentary dust
Holding shape against the wall
