Polaroids of a Dead Summer (One'sOwnLife Cover) by bandofsorrows

( Intro ) 
The Polaroids ( Polaroids )
We look at what is left  ( What is left )

(Verse 1)
The sun was burning 
Through the glass ( the light )
On every day we swore would last
Your laughter drifting through the heat
Barefoot running down my street ( together )

We said forever 
Like we knew ( As if we knew )
That nothing good could come unglued
But time was quietly pulling threads
From every promise that we said (The threads!)

(Pre-Chorus)
Now every memory feels like a photograph
Fading slow inside my hands

(Chorus)
I’m flipping through the Polaroids ( Polaroids )
Of the dead summer we destroyed
Your smile frozen in the light
Like we were never meant to fight

Every frame is you and me (you and I)
Before the silence came to be
All that’s left of what we were
(What we were)
Are Polaroids of a dead summer

(Verse 2)
We carved our names 
Into 
The Bark ( Into the bark )
Like time would never pass so fast
But the tree grew over every mark
Just like the smile on your face ( time takes it away )

You said the feeling 
Changed 
Somehow ( Somehow )
Like love had simply burned out
But I still hear you in the breeze
Whispering( summer leaves )

(Pre-Chorus)
Now every memory feels like a photograph
Fading slow inside my hands

(Chorus)
I’m flipping through the Polaroids ( Polaroids )
Of the dead summer we destroyed
Your smile frozen in the light 
Like we were never meant to fight

Every frame is you and me (you and I)
Before the silence came to be
All that’s left of what we were
(All that’s left)
Are Polaroids of a dead summer

(Bridge)
Do 
You remember 
Late July
Fireflies in your
Backyard sky
You said 
We'd never 
Drift apart
With your head 
Against 
My heart

But seasons change without a sound ( sound )
And love gets lost and never found (sound)

(Breakdown)

THESE PICTURES 
NEVER TOLD

We were already falling apart

SMILING FOR 
(A MOMENT)
THAT WAS DYING 
(FROM THE START)

Every memory burns like the sun
But the summer’s dead and gone

(Final Chorus)

I’m flipping through the Polaroids ( Polaroids )
Of the dead summer we destroyed
Your smile fading in the light
Like a ghost in black and white

Every frame is you and me ( You and I )
Before the silence came to be
All that’s left of what we were (What We Were!)
Are Polaroids of a dead summer

(Outro)

Just faded colors 
In my drawer
Of a love that isn’t 
Anymore

Polaroids…
Of a dead summer. 
(Whispered, eerie atmosphere)
The Polaroids 
(The Polaroids)
The Polaroids
