Take a Picture Lyrics

when you choose your fate, don't think too much
if you just can't wait, throw out your crutch
make a name for yourself, make a self for your name
take a picture or two, because you won't be the same
when you lose your mind, don't think at all
if you do you'll find you can't recall
what you did to yourself, what you did to the world
take a picture or two, said your mind as it twirled

in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head
there's a world of dreams, and it's out of reach
but above the screams, you hear its speech

take a picture or two, it'll soon disappear

when the clock strikes one, look out below
(look out below)
it has just begun, and you don't know
(you don't know)
what we did to ourselves, what we did to the sky
take a picture or two, said your mind with a sigh
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head, it said, take a picture, it said
in your head
