Black and white photographs over your bed
Dark and light corduroy shadows are fed[?]
I remembered that day
On the beach under a cellophane sky
I remember the way
That you posed for the camera's eye

Am I wasting what's done?
Over and over while under the gun
These images of you
Photographs faded by a black and white sun

Day and night, images go through my head
Dark red light circling over your bed
I remembered that day
On the beach under a gasoline light
I remember the way
That you'd spark in a blanket of white

Am I wasting what's done?
Over and over while under the gun
These images of you
Photographs faded by a black and white sun

Time after time
Time after time again
Underneath the documented sky
Frame after frame of a large seeing[?] eye

Time after time
Time after time again
Caught before the circling camera's eye
Frame after frame of a [?] you and I

Am I wasting what's done?
Over and over while under the gun
These images of you
Photographs faded, yeah

Am I wasting what's done?
Over and over while under the gun
These images of you
Photographs faded, yeah
