Let’s not try to figure out everything at once.
I don’t want anybody else.
I was a comfortable kid but I don’t think about it much anymore. Lay me on the table, put flowers in my mouth and we can say that we invented a summer lovin’ torture party.
We’re the heirs to the glimmering world.
Oh, come, come be my waitress and serve me tonight, serve me the sky with a big slice of lemon.
Oh, you wouldn’t want an angel watching over, surprise, surprise, they wouldn’t wanna watch. Another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults.
One time you were a glowing young ruffian…
I take a 45 minute shower and kiss the mirror, and say look at me, ‘baby, we’ll be fine.
This is nothing like it was in my room in my best clothes, trying to think of you.
