lyrics

Written by Jim Soule
3/13/2007

I find I'm running
From a museum full of you
Can't be struggling
To be who I really want me to
Now that you're running
Erase that book of me and you
Your key says, "future"
This last page says, "me without you"
With a perfect photo of you
Sitting in your chair and no one had to guess how you feel
With no end in sight and every single moment needs no fuel

Elate, Let the flashbacks fall asleep behind the wheel
Elate, Pack up all the things I used to feel
Elate, Coat of fresh paint over my memory
Elate, Let my heart elate again
Let my heart elate again

I'm the one at the wheel
Driving away from how I feel
Your heartbreak's cunning
Larger than any sharpened tool
My dream says, "never"
But that's exactly how you set me free
With a faded photo of you
Sitting in a chair and never really knowing how you feel
Now the folds and time have opened up a feeling that is real
Now I'm at the wheel and trying to remember how to feel

Elate, Let the flashbacks fall asleep behind the wheel
Elate, Pack up all the things I used to feel
Elate, Coat of fresh paint over my memory
Elate, Let my heart elate again
Let my heart elate again
