lyrics

This is not roses, it's an ivy plant
Twisting around whatever shape
It grows for as long as the form can change
That could be you in that photograph
Black and white one-piece bathing suit
Your grandmother looks uncannily like you

I will be there when you don't know me
I will be there when you don't know me
I will be there when you don't know me
And I will sing when you forget the words

You say you're gonna die like this some day
Even if we make it out alive
But if there's a contract, where do I sign?
I could preserve you in amber
Before you begin to decay
But then I would miss everything on the way

I will be there when you don't know me
I will be there when you don't know me
I will be there when you don't know me
And I will sing when you forget the words
The words
The words
The words
The words
