lyrics

What did we learn today?
No place lasts forever
No one lives forever

Neither.

Your feet are wet with paint
You’ll learn to walk a portrait
Learn that outside voices, inside are lethal


I broke that chair so fast
I must weigh a ton
I must think a ton,
These thoughts should be illegal

If I am wholly good
A Diamond chandelier
If Light refracts through all of me
How can it be that parts of me are evil?

It’s really not that bad, it’s just a summer fad,
light is temperamental in the south of jersey

There’s nothing to wake up for
Still, today I wake up early
Today I wake up early
You never woke up, curious where this goes


8 or 9 or 10
A brick thrown at his head
Thank god it missed and hit his tiny legs instead

Now do you feel guilty
Top down when he drives
Every parking lot is empty
It’s the only thing that makes him feel
It makes him feel alive

It’s really not that bad
I patched things up with dad
As far as we could go
Before it got too awkward, before it got too sad
We talked about your daughter,
We talked about your body
We talked about your test scores
We talked about potential
We talked about potential
We talked until we figured
That none of that’s essential
That none of that is worthy
Of carving into marble
Of carving in two


You were just born, now you’ve got a kid,
An angel crawls on earth to reach you, to teach you
You’re not just born, with happiness
You learn it everyday, so pull thru, pull me thru too

You were just born, now you’ve got a kid,
An angel crawls on earth to reach you, to teach you
You’re not just born, with happiness
You learn it everyday, so pull thru, pull me thru too
