David F. Bello - Wreck lyrics

I'd love to whisper words into your grave But I know that you will never hear A single word that I would think to say They all just clog up in your rotting ear I'll keep the photos I never took of you And scorch the edges to mock time Clocks are nothing but spinning wheels With numbers that don't add up to nine In the future others will use your name in songs But they'll never know just how you felt The list of writers grows long And the world will soon forget Someday I will go back to school And read a book about resurrection And if it doesn't bring you back to me I'll burn it and borrow another one Your memory won't survive out of this bedroom door You died with your body and soon I'll die with mine No one will remember your face anymore And selfishly to me that sounds fine And I'll sing every song I ever wrote Because my dear they're all about you And as I stare up at the bottom of the boat I'll gurgle your name if it's the last thing I ever do
