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
Eight or Nine or Ten
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 through, pull me through 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 through, pull me through too
