For the Moment

It was something my teacher said
I thought about it long
She told me that God is dead
And we were at fault
And I know nothing about these kinds of things
I’ve spent my low life dressed in
Based off of everything they’ve seen
They’ll never trust a word from me
And over all those years ago
Whenever my friends left my home
I’d wonder back towards those times
You’ll find
That it‘s something for the moment
It’s something for the time
And though I never loved you
At least I never lied
It’s just another photo
Just another line
You know I never loved you
Although I never tried

Forget what my teacher said
She’s locked up too long
She’s missing the deep again
And I know something about those kinds of things
I’ve spent my whole life leaning in
Wherever I go people tell
They’ll never trust a word from him
And over all those years ago
Whenever my friends left my home
I’d wonder back towards those times
You’ll find
That it’s something for the moment
It’s something for the time
And though I never loved you
At least I never lied
It’s just another photo
Just another line
You know I never loved you
Although I never tried
