I was born in September |
| [00:44.105] |
And like everything else, I can't remember |
| [00:47.242] |
I replaced it with scenes from a film that I will never know |
| [00:53.703] |
And I blinked, it was over |
| [00:56.118] |
I was thinking my life would get slower |
| [00:59.807] |
That I would sort this shit out when I'm sober |
| [01:02.977] |
It should get better now that you're older |
| [01:06.089] |
I read the scares on the front page |
| [01:08.396] |
It says we're waiting around for an ice age |
| [01:11.779] |
It says our comforts, they come with a price tag |
| [01:14.906] |
They cured the cancer but discovered a new plague |
| [01:17.893] |
They say just think of the children |
| [01:20.505] |
And imagine the world that we've willed them |
| [01:23.570] |
Is populated with weirdos to kill them |
| [01:26.423] |
And break their hearts |
| [01:27.492] |
And everybody knows |
| [01:31.408] |
That this the end |
| [01:32.774] |
It's now fashionable |
| [01:35.109] |
Dinner party conversation |
| [01:40.098] |
Now I'm as old as you were when you had me |
| [01:43.151] |
Should I be afraid? Should I start a family? |
| [01:46.286] |
Raise them in the wild 'cause up against the city |
| [01:48.880] |
My love is such a small thing |
| [01:52.991] |
|
| [02:12.828] |
When you're young, you're hot |
| [02:15.737] |
You have your whole life before you |
| [02:17.549] |
Everyone will adore |
| [02:18.571] |
You'll grow up, you'll be an astronaut |
| [02:22.760] |
Or anything you want |
| [02:25.581] |
What goes up, goes up in flames |
| [02:27.957] |
And now your choices surround you |
| [02:29.555] |
Indecision confounds you |
| [02:30.875] |
And you're pacing around the place |
| [02:34.058] |
Shows you everything you're not |
| [02:37.434] |
And then the brief little romance |
| [02:40.045] |
You committed a soul without its consent |
| [02:43.704] |
To live a life as a form without its content |
| [02:47.145] |
Because young people get bored everyday |
| [02:52.275] |
Yeah young people, young people get bored |
| [03:00.478] |
Never went to church, thought a song was going to save me |
| [03:02.522] |
So I wrote a hymn on the guitar that you gave me |
| [03:05.722] |
Singing what you spoke, we built a fire just for smoking |
| [03:08.088] |
You know hope is just a small thing |
| [03:11.528] |
I just called to tell you |
| [03:14.661] |
I just called to say |
| [03:17.031] |
Learn all your mistakes |
| [03:19.622] |
You were my inspiration |
| [03:22.800] |
And it wasn't all we hoped for |
| [03:25.135] |
But we shake it off and we say |
| [03:27.717] |
Here's your yellow ribbon |
| [03:30.574] |
I am your consolation |
| [03:34.413] |
I was born in September |
| [03:36.753] |
And if I died today |
| [03:38.578] |
Just know I don't regret you |
| [03:41.413] |
Some things I can't explain |
| [03:44.061] |
It's a slow descent |
| [03:46.878] |
It's a loveless place |
| [03:49.448] |
Every goddamn day |
| [03:53.793] |
Let it go |
| [03:56.677] |
No matter where you go |
| [03:59.273] |
Know that I will follow |
| [04:11.526] |
I just called to tell you |
| [04:13.941] |
I just called to say |
| [04:16.525] |
Learn all your mistakes |
| [04:19.090] |
Passed down through generations |
