And I've seen what happens to the wicked
and proud when they
decide to try to take on the throne for the crown.
And we learn as we age.
Wait for nothing and my body still aches.
And you take cause they give.
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve.
When it got old outside,
smoke beneath the playground lights.
If you're coming home, just let me know.
Sucking on your breath mint,
dissected and stuck with pins.
A film in her eyes from the glow.
Concrete and water,
she's looking for her daughter at midnight in torrential downpour.
In a car outside, we stalk the idle kind.
If you're leaving, just let me know.
Tobacco and peppermint, dusting for fingerprints.
A film in her eyes from the glow. Some rules are
made with all intentions to break and
she defends it with a warned rationale.
And everything I said about how messed up your head is,
were cut up and left in bits and pieces on the ground.
And we learn as we age.
Wait for nothing and my body still aches.
And you take cause they give.
Though I love you and
my body it leaks like a sieve.
Take the picture from the wall when you think that nothing matters.
Take the picture from the frame and it's a long ways to the floor.
Cut your finger on the edge cause it's sharper than they told you.
Take a leap from out the window cause it's way too far to go through the door.
And we learn as we age.
Wait for nothing and my body still aches.
And you take cause they give.
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve.
