Things don't get solved for nothing
and things don't get better from sitting around
She's got new things in her mind
and he's got more pain in his eyes
Pictures come back with a floating mind
remember everything that wasn't right
and he's got more fear than anyone
and she lost control all at once.
The lights came on late last night
I knew what I should tell all of you
But things disappear when your thoughts are full
and nothing's there when my mouth moves
Nothing's going to get better until you pick up and start
Images don't create themselves, but everything falls apart
Nothing's going to get better until you pick up and start
Songs don't create themselves but everything falls apart
Everything in the world reminds me
Everything in the world will remind me
All words mean less, the more you hear
nothing goes away with more time
You've got new things in your life
and I've got more pain in my eyes
Pictures flash bright almost all the time
there is no way to make it right
You've got more fear than anyone
and I lost control all at once
The lights came on late last night
I knew what words I should say to you
But there's no point in explaining to you
cuz none of these thoughts are new
