Wax Romantic - Cardamom Killer Lyrics

You took good pictures of me, now they're blue sun bleached nearly faded clean
I wondered where that camera went shivering inside a soggy tent
Black hole grows up on a beach when we tried to speak it was muttering
Instead of what we said colliding in the present tense

Have you heard of the Cardamom Killer
Pocket full of pods surround his heart
Which he buried six feet under looking into a mirror

I will be a stranger to you
I will be a stranger to you

From a castle that I fled to a forest, it was red
You're in Washington D.C and I finally learned to speak
Now you're bursting as a sound and we're mutually proud
Was this supposed to happen
Like some sort of crystal action

Have you heard of the Cardamom Killer
Cork board full of strings he cut himself
Now they're dangling on his wall like the lights in a guildhall

I will be a stranger to you
I will be a stranger to you

We were singing on the porch outside, it was the last time it would happen
It was blue, was that you
Do you remember you remember it too
Next time it'd be Tuesday night, you just slipped inside my room to cry
And you asked, though it's past, do you think what we had would ever last

Have you heard of the Cardamom Killer
Shotgun full of slug aimed at your thoughts
Which will leave a hole much deeper like an emotional reaper

I will be a stranger to you
I will be a stranger to you
I will be a stranger to you
I will be a stranger to you
