Lyrics
The Polaroid you shot on Eighth Street, June of '09,
has got that yellow bleed on the mimosa vine.
Your laugh is still so loud inside the gloss finish,
like the heat's so high the world ain't ever gonna diminish.
[Chorus]
Is a memory a ghost you gotta keep alive?
'Cause if I let you go, is that the second time you die?
[Verse 2]
I try to trace the scar above your left eyebrow,
but the edges gettin' soft, the details leavin' now.
I remember you said, "Don't get that LA state of mind,"
but your voice is just a low-grade static hum I can't find.

[Chorus]
Is a memory a ghost you gotta keep alive?
'Cause if I let you go, is that the second time you die?
[Bridge]
The physics of the haunt are just a slow decay.
A half-life on the shape you made, it burns out day by day.
(Music cuts. A single dub-echoed guitar chord rings out and fades to silence for 4 seconds.)
[Outro]
There's a cool spot on the pillow.
I forgot whose name to whisper into it.
