Better blurred...

Taking a picture
Can’t you back up?
It’s not that the camera won’t focus
The farther you’re away
It seems the better that you look
Maybe it’s some magic hocus pocus

Years after tomorrow
Turning off the light
You can be here but please don’t be seen
The memory’s enough
And the conversation’s rough
It’s not something subtle where you slip the message in between

You know, you’re better when you blur
And the world begins to whir
And the pictures start to stir
It isn’t not the way you were
It’s just that you’re better when you blur

Standing in the night
In the passing cars tail lights
I know full well you’re standing just behind me
But with every due regret
But without the hesitation
It would be nicer if nobody would remind me

You know, you’re better when you blur
And the world begins to whir
And the pictures start to stir
It isn’t not the way you were
It’s just that you’re better when you blur
