[Verse 1]
Growing up in the Saturday lights
Summer heat from a wild high
We traded love for sex and you said
"Get it on camera"
Painted pictures with the city lights
Cool breeze with a cardigan vibe
Then you're gone, you ghost of mine, and what's worse?
You put it on camera
[Pre-Chorus]
Old souls, untwined, you sway in time
In time, you swayed
Now I'm watching home movies
[Chorus]
Killing me slow all alone
You're like a flicker flame lose control
And I wish that I were better at letting it go but now
I'm up all night watching home movies
Sitting there in front of the screen
You're like a wandering dream, a mystery
And I wish that I were better at letting it be
But now I'm up all night watching home movies
[Post-Chorus]
Like you're lying there with me
But you're killing the memory
[Verse 2]
Hazel eyes and a taste for the past
Psychedelics and we're moving too fast
Table tops while we're breaking the glass and you said
"Get it on camera"
Coffee stains and cigarettes
Burning fingers 'til there's nothing left
Sun was up but we never slept and you said
"Get it on camera"
[Pre-Chorus]
Reel back, rewind, we sway in time
In time, we swayed
Now I'm watching home movies
[Chorus]
Killing me slow all alone
You're like a flicker flame lose control
And I wish that I were better at letting it go but now
I'm up all night watching home movies
Sitting there in front of the screen
You're like a wandering dream, a mystery
And I wish that I were better at letting it be
But now I'm up all night watching home movies
[Post-Chorus]
Like you're lying there with me
But you're killing the memory
Like you're lying there with me
But you're killing the memory
[Bridge]
Let me down easy, let me down easy, let me down
Let me down
Let me down easy, let me down easy, let me down
[Chorus]
Killing me slow all alone
You're like a flicker flame lose control
And I wish that I were better at letting it go but now
I'm up all night watching home movies
Sitting there in front of the screen
You're like a wandering dream, a mystery
And I wish that I were better at letting it be
But now I'm up all night watching home movies
[Post-Chorus]
Like you're lying there with me
But you're killing the memory
(Let me down easy, let me down easy)
Like you're lying there with me
But you're killing the memory
