Snap - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Oh I was sitting in the park, toes numb, after dark

When I found my eyes fall from their sockets

And it's a glorious thing, when daily thoughts take a field trip

Time no longer stashed in your pockets

Though I came to an end where every act of love felt pretend

And I found myself falling

Through icy grounds

Till I finally found

A truth that would keep me from stalling

For we're all actors, waiting for a spark

Reaching out in the dark

Hoarding love, so's not to fall apart

Collecting pictures of lost pasts

Ordering the chaos to a tune

Laughing silly in the light of moon

Faking it senseless, breaking hard

Doing our best to make a start

[Bridge]

You see the end is more difficult to determine

Though it's always there in sight

And with all our might we try our best to crystallise

Our love into an infinite form of life

[Chorus]

In a snapshot, I saw all that had been lived before

My own distorted sense of space, I fear, you know

It's the way it goes

Hear me, darling, we're not doomed

Paint us against a brighter sky and I swear I'll mean something to you

[Verse 2]

Oh I was standing in the crowd

My own silence drumming so loud

And I hit the wall bleeding

For these bodies hold such meaning

Carry such pain

Can't help but fear that time burns to waste

Catch myself moving for the sake of getting things done

Catch myself singing in the sun for the sake of having some piece of me sung

Shared to the world wrapped in glitter and gold

Breaking the quiet on those summer days when the air blows cold

[Bridge]

You see the end is more difficult to determine

Though it's always there in sight

And with all our might we try our best to crystallise

Our love into an infinite form of life

[Chorus]

In a snapshot, I saw all that had been lived before

My own distorted sense of space, I fear, you know

It's the way it goes

Hear me, darling, we're not doomed

Paint us against a brighter sky

In a snapshot, I saw all that had been lived before

My own distorted sense of space, I fear, you know

It's the way it goes

Hear me, darling, we're not doomed

Paint us against a brighter sky

And I swear I'll mean something to you

[Bridge]

I'll mean something to you

[Chorus]

In a snapshot, I saw all that had been lived before

My own distorted sense of space, I fear, you know

It's the way it goes

Hear me, darling, we're not doomed

Paint us against a brighter sky and I swear I'll mean something to you
