Powder in your hair, staples in your jeans, fireworks at the water
You were holding a Styrofoam cup, held between your teeth
You're telling me how you're going to outlive your body
What you said I wrote it down
It won't say, it won't speak the same
Maybe I know better than
To read more than what's written
After everything, after everything
Left in the sun, shivering, after everything
Gathering your storm, I talk to fill the space
Do you know where so and so was when they were our age?
Then every night you seem to talk me out of everything
Careful what you say next
Don't waste a single drop
What you said I wrote it down
It won't say, it won't speak the same
After everything, after everything
Left in the sun, shivering, after everything
What you said I wrote it down
It won't say, it won't speak the same
Maybe I know better than
To read more than what's there
After everything, after everything
Left in the sun, shivering, after everything
