The present tense, it seems to fail me Time and time again The future always seems to be so Goddamn desolate The past has always figured out Just how to catch up fast And I'm just waiting for my rest I can show you how the world goes on Let me know you, long before we're gone My time is sweet, my love endeering Cast aside my hate Spending all these memories Until it's all too late My adolescent brain, in vain Will stumble over fate And I'm just waiting for the date I can show you how the world goes on Let me know you, long before we're gone I adore you, let me show you love Life will bore you, love will spice it up Wouldn't it feel sweet? Wouldn't you hate to know her? Threw away the key The pearly gates are closed forever Bound together Just as you kissed her Those starry eyes have seemed to fail me God, I'm such a mess Pessimistic realism God, I must confess My adolescent brain, in vain Succumbs to all the stress But there's still so much more left I can show you how the world goes on Let me know you, long before we're gone I adore you, let me show you love Life will bore you, love will spice it up I can show you how the world goes on Let me know you, long before we're gone I adore you, let me show you love Life will bore you, love will spice it up
