In false memories we used to dance
Like little kids
With no control over our limbs
Make a mess of our good friends' apartment
I'd pull you close over the wreckage
Don't suppose we'll move like that again, darling?

All you were
Is a former future

Thinking I may need
A change in scenery
These bleeding fluorescents steal away the stars
No paths left for me to roam
No return to the mountain town we come from
Big dipper guide me somewhere new, dark, and far

All you were
Is a former future
All you were
Is a former future

Press my feet against the page
Want to walk inside your great
Green room
When the walls all grow dark
Will my name be a part of your good nights?

Tucked in together
Swaddled mitten mice
Caressed to sleep by the same moon beam
Brownie heard right
There is no reason to grieve
You're everyone you've loved
Thank them when they leave
