i have spent too much
combined with staying in touch
you, you're opening eyes
going blind at the age of fourteen
forgot how to see
if they could stand back
it would be easy for me to crack
they are beautiful as they sit
up all night and debate
if they could believe
it would be easier to perceive
but they were born with a spacious heart
and it's never too late
he said it was a good farewell
promoting the D.I.Y
trying to stay high
but if we dance now
they'll act as if we were dead
come on start playing
i'll guide you through anything
and if we scream now
you'll see the twitch in their eyes
watch the rupture, put a crack in their wall
come on, i won't be here that long
a play, but no one will act
they came drunk at one
and unaware of what they had done
waved their hands, sung their songs
a desperate breath
a universal last cigarette
pounding harder for every beat
shivering away
