Forever Got Shorter Lyrics - Braid

let's go undercover 

like young lovers should 

cause I can kiss you better 

then this letter could 

and you say 

at least under 

these covers 

I listen to you 

And all this music about you 

I hope it finds you smiling again 

till never begins 

or till forever ends 

I'll still be lost in poetics 

or lost in the mail 

can nobody tell you 

these guys have a passion for fashion 

but are sincere like a statue 

and if you have to choose 

I am gonna lose 

I always do 

we always do 

nostalgia is drunk 

and frustration can be gorgeous 

but can i keep my mouth shut 

(I listen to you 

And all this music about you 

I hope it finds you smiling again 

till never begins 

or till forever ends ) 

cause sometimes gorgeous can be frustration 

when your life is nothing 

but an honorable mention 

on a radio, on the radio. 

maybe i'm a baby 

but i think it's time to grow. 

you're everything i live for 

-ever got shorter. 

i'll know on a radio better 

I'm a quitter than a starry 

tortured soul 

the lips I kissed now shape songs of sadness 

hold me dear when I'm away 

and I'll know when I hear your name 

even if I have to sing it to myself.
