...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead - Lost Songs

Pinhole Camera

I've seen this city through the eyes of pin hole cameras
Shadows grey and upside down
I've seen these streets strech like slides in panorama
Vanish into darkness on the edge of town

It makes me sorry
My pin hole camera
These photographs
Reveal no answers

I've walked the allleys with my camera in my pockets
I've stopped to watch the sun set, Ladybird Lake, Austin
I've captured moments, paces, faces lost and empty
I've seen them starving, living in this land of plenty

It makes me sorry
My pin hole camera
These photographs
Reveal no answers

I've traced the lines of broken prayers on empty spaces
Recorded time in strange and cryptic wire transmissions
Postponed the days I felt fit to reveal the deception
Does deception reveal itself?

It makes me sorry
My pin hole camera
These photographs
Reveal no answers

I've kept the world a secret in my instamatic
I've captured history upside down
Taken light from others heedless of the vision
Lost memories to anger in a split decision

It makes me sorry
The world of cameras
Our photographs
Reveal no answers
