lyrics

Got a human skull, and a wooden flute, and a not-yet-rotten bowl of fruit
I set them out like artists do, and I wish I could do the same to you
Got a canvas, and the finest brush, for all the angles that the light don’t touch
Draw it before it turns to dusk, cos living is only dust to dust

I’ll capture you in vanitas
Cos nothing’s ever gonna last
What goes up must come down
What you let go by won’t come back round
Waiting for this soaring high
To crush me to the ground

Hanging in suspended time, and the moments pass unsatisfied
Trying to keep them all alive, to make a shrine of you and I
The day, it slips away from me, and my canvas ever incomplete
Close my eyes before you leave, to burn you into my memory

I’ll capture you in vanitas
Cos nothing’s ever gonna last
What goes up must come down
What you let go by won’t come back round
Waiting for this soaring high
To crush me to the ground

How easily it disappears
Til presently I’ll doubt that you were ever there
Before I even take it in
Before my eyes you’re vanishing
Did I imagine it?

I’ll capture you in vanitas
Cos nothing’s ever gonna last
What goes up must come down
What you let go by won’t come back round
Waiting for this soaring high
To crush me to the ground
