Another mope-rock composition: a bonfire of memories ignited in one afternoon of complete freedom from the past.

Lyrics
Words and Music by Jeff Farley
I’ll take the photographs
The memories
Be here today
I’ll take the photographs
Be in the picture
I don’t want to be here anymore
Snap shots of memories
Framed in glass
In Kodacrome
Out on the windowsill
I see you left
Your metronome
I’ll take the photographs
Cause I can’t get the picture
Of you out of my head
I’ll take the photographs
Cause I don’t need the memories
I don’t want them any more
“Twilight, into the darkness on top of a hill down by the ocean under the stars along side the sage brush in between the moments of our closeness and the silence lies the unspoken the unanswered the understood. I am always here for you, I am free when I am with you in the happiness in the sorrow in the present, twilight…”
I’ll take the photographs
Cause I don’t want to be in the picture
I don’t want to be here anymore
I’ll take the photographs
Cause I can’t get the picture
Of you out of my head
It’s so hard to say
That you’ve gone away
It’s so hard to stay
You stole my heart away
