How memories ruin songs
When the shades changed to a dark grey
and faceless masks hid every face
and words written sweetly, but unwatered, decayed
this melody took me away...

With a single, solid record
and the slightest length of time
the air turned sweet with music
bright colors changed the sky
I walked through golden fields
I hid in gorgeous lights
I drank these precious seconds
And loved this boundless life.

You burned those golden fields
You changed this cherished song
Poisoned with your memory
Now every note is wrong
I think of us together
our love set like the sun
and on that starless night
you said that we were done.
