Burning Photographs Lyrics
by Ryan Adams
PRE-INTRO
VERSE 1 (0.23)
i finally see the light
down on the east side, wasted like a memory
if i had a car i'd drive
straight off the bridge into the river, it would empty me
POST-VERSE 1 (0.39)
pretty pictures in a magazine
everybody is so make believe, it's true
VERSE 2 (0.47)
i used to be sad, now i'm just bored with you
CHORUS 1 (0.54)
you're doomed to repeat the past
'cause nothing is gonna last
i burned all of your photographs
INTRO 2 (1.10)
VERSE 3 (1.18)
traffic sings the songs
inviting me in to dodge the bullets from an empty gun
if i had a car
i'd drive straight into the window of a bank i owed money to
POST-VERSE 2 (1.33)
pretty pictures in a magazine
everybody is so make believe, it's true
VERSE 4 (1.41)
i used to be sad, now i'm just bored with you
CHORUS 2 (x2) (1.49)
you're doomed to repeat the past
'cause nothing is gonna last
i burned all of your photographs
BRIDGE (2.19)
and all the time you're so unhappy
and everything to you's so heavy
but oh my word, ain't you so pretty now
there's nothing to make up now
no one to wake up now
she's starting to break up, wow
POST-VERSE 3 (2.46)
pretty pictures in a magazine
everybody is so make believe, it's true
VERSE 5 (2.54)
i used to be sad, now i'm just bored with you
CHORUS 3 (x2) (3.02)
you're doomed to repeat the past
'cause nothing is gonna last
i burned all of your photographs
OUTRO (3.33)
