He's living there captured in a dark, lonely quiet place
The line's getting clearer on his face every day
Oh can you hear him
Ooh
Once he was free from it all, living in the moment of each day
Now looking back is causing him so much pain
Oh can you see him
Oh disappearing, yeah
Take me back for the last time
Let me go with you once more
Pictures scatter into nothing
They will never come alive
Nostalgic and weak he's trying to speak
But how can he not when all that he's got is gone so long ago
Oh don't you fear him
Oh you will hear him now as he begs you please
Take me back for the last time
Let me go with you once more
Pictures scatter into nothing
They will never come alive
I can't stand
I can't stand
I can't stand
I can't stand
I can't stand
I can't stand this
I can't stand
I can't stand
I can't stand this no won't you please help me lord
Take me back for the last time
Let me go with you once more
Pictures scatter into nothing
They will never come alive
Come alive oh, said memories never die
Said pictures, said pictures never die
