Photographs Lie Lyrics - Singles - Shelter

As I admire the smiles on the people in the photo 

I think "What am I missing this time?" 

I'm always racing, chasing, someone, somewhere, 

that isn`t mine 

Thinking that the grass is greener on the other side 

Thinking that in your shoes I'll be satisfied. 

first admiration, then contemplation 

tricking my mind... cause I know that photographs lie 

Well photographs lie they fool my eyes 

they show me something that is not 

It's like fire that makes me desire 

what they have while they may want what I've got 

And this romanticism is like a prison 

'cause live won't turn out to how it is foreseen 

So will any body care or just be there 

to pick up our shattered dreams 

Admiring you while you may be admiring me 

Photographs painting a false picutre of reality 

And I think I'd rather leave it, just leave it as a blur. 

Instead of lamenting over the past 

of things that never were. 

Photographs Lie by Shelter. Lyrics by Ray Cappo. from the Lp "Perfection of 

Desire" on Revelation Records.
