Imagination

from Double Edged Sword by Ryan Garrett

/

about

A very personal track, and to be honest I'd like to keep it that way for now.

lyrics

The typical silver moon looks gold this afternoon
And all this quiet weather makes the sky look just like leather
But it's not all that blue, no it looks more like you
Stars are bright like the whitest smile you've not revealed in such a while
But I can't see through all the stained glass teardrops
The city lights pass by like they'll never stop
Have you really been right here through all these twisted years?
Have I been wasting time in my own fear?
Or was it just my imagination?
Was it just my imagination?

These past regrets fall like ashes from cigarettes
Across my life these memories scatter
Except the ones that really matter
Like the time you saw me through and all the work you had to do
Just to get me to see that you were right in front of me
But these days it gets so hard to earn some trust
Everyone says Hey, you've got nothing to offer us
We're never satisfied. Within each other's company we hide.
But all along you felt it somewhere deep inside
Or was it just my imagination?

The objects in your mind may be closer than they appear
But sometimes it gets so hard to see it all so clear
And I know I overthink it all or so it seems
But I swear to God I know what I mean

And I can't see through all the stained glass teardrops
The city lights pass by like they'll never stop
Have you really been right here through all these twisted years?
Have I been wasting time in my own fear?
Or was it just my imagination?
Was it just my imagination?
Was it just my imagination?
