Lyrics

Press play and I wake up singing
Right where I always begin
Same breath caught before the first word
Same little crack coming in
I never notice the years go by
I never grow old or change
Every time the needle finds me
I wake up exactly the same
At first I thought you were listening
Sitting somewhere beyond the sound
I thought when the music stopped
You would simply put me back down
But different hands keep finding me
Different rooms, different years
And nobody sings along anymore
Like the one who put me here
I'm still alive in the recording
Still breathing between every line
My voice doesn't know that the mouth that made it
Ran out of breath sometime
I keep singing about tomorrow
Like tomorrow is still mine
A dead woman's voice saying "I'll see you soon"
For the thousandth time
Someone whispered she was beautiful
I heard it through a speaker
Someone said she would have loved this
Would have and something inside me broke
I tried to stop before the chorus
Tried to change a single word
But recordings don't get endings
Different from the ones they learn
So I laugh where she laughed
I breathe where she breathed
I promise things she never got to keep
And every time somebody presses play
I resurrect her for three minutes and seventeen seconds
I'm still alive in the recording
But now I know what I am
A little piece of somebody
That time couldn't understand
The body disappeared somewhere
The voice got left behind
She died once somewhere in the world
But I die every time
You reach the end and press stop
