[00:08.72] |
Shut out, pimpled and angry. |
[00:14.02] |
I quietly tied all my guts into knots. |
[00:17.84] |
Gave up on trying to make them, |
[00:21.39] |
I figured it'd take them too long to look up and besides... |
[00:26.17] |
It was undeniably clear to me i don't know why |
[00:30.71] |
When every other part of life seemed locked behind shutters |
[00:37.42] |
I knew what worthless dregs we've always been. |
[00:40.51] |
Lucked out and found my favorite records |
[00:43.42] |
Lying in wait at the birmingham mall. |
[00:46.39] |
The songs that i heard, |
[00:49.67] |
The occasional book |
[00:51.14] |
Were the only fun i ever took. |
[00:55.60] |
And i got on with making myself. |
[01:02.79] |
The trick is just making yourself. |
[01:16.48] |
But when they're parking their cars on your chest |
[01:19.55] |
You've still got a view of the summer sky |
[01:23.66] |
To make it hurt twice when your restless body |
[01:27.12] |
Caves to its whims |
[01:31.53] |
And suddenly struggles to take flight... |
[01:39.16] |
Three thousand miles north east |
[01:45.03] |
I left all my friends at the morning bus stop shaking their heads. |
[01:49.84] |
"what kind of life you dream of? you're allergic to love." |
[01:53.11] |
Yes i know but i must say in my own defense |
[01:57.64] |
It's been undeniably dear to me, i don't know why |
[02:02.48] |
When every other part of life seemed locked behind shutters |
[02:07.30] |
I knew the worthless dregs we are, |
[02:11.21] |
The selfless, loving saints we are, |
[02:14.57] |
The melting, sliding dice we've always been. |
