Reminiscer by Mountainess

Reminiscer
How clear do you see?
A warm night in August
We were watching TV

Words trapped in static
But I could feel you breathe
You were shaking when you kissed me

Reminiscer
Is that one of your scenes?
Replayed 'til the tape warps
And skips those times you were mean

So that all that stands between us
Is the cruel nature of now
You never liked it here anyhow

And memory lane
Is an easy drive
In your rose-colored glasses
On the passenger’s side
It’s your story to bend
But it’s also mine

Reminiscer
When I lay by you
Who were you missing?
Sometimes I think it was me

'Cause the past can tell the future
When you visit long enough
The people that you love stay behind

And memory lane
Is an easy drive
In your rose-colored glasses
On the passenger’s side
It’s your story to bend
But it’s also mine

To share with a sigh
A little bigger each time
The way we tell it makes it easy to forget
It was once just life

And memory lane
Is an easy drive
I take the same turns
Watch the scenery lie
Cause we’re stranger again
You can rewrite the ending
It’s your story to bend
But it’s also mine
