Kids

If there’s one thing that I’ve learnt it’s that not all bad decisions turn out
bad,
well at least not yet
Cause in sheds like these I’ve shivered through some of the best times of my
life,
and I’m not dead yet
There’s nothing as beautiful as the scramble to the front row of a few
Enough people to keep your arms warm but still not obstruct your view
Of the road-wearied wanderers with the really stoned drummer throwing sweat and
beers
With the city that they’re playing in’s name on the outside of the tin
And she stared straight into his soul on the broken step, he’d stared straight
into everyone’s with his hair between his lips
And everything played out before me like the most obvious story of bravado and
libido, some buzz word, some dead hero
I hope I can keep doing this, I’ll keep staying off the piss, well at least
before we play cause I remember them that way
I’m running from misheard conversations, half-imagined explanations,
my own undying frustration and the feeling that there’s something better than
this
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We’re just kids staring at the sun and we don’t mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We’re just kids staring at the sun and we don’t mean nothing to no one
And who the fuck do I think I am to stand here and scream just like I’ve got
some kind of plan
And even if I did I wouldn’t have a single good thing to say about it
Cause all that’s in my head is recycled rhetoric and smart things that my
parents have said, nothing more and nothing less
I never once made any sense can’t sit still long enough to let my hands rest
Speak open sounds at open sores and hope and the ground and know what people
think I am and what I am isn’t the same thing
Wake every day and live a lifestyle lined wtih dying
and the overriding feeling there’s something better than this
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We’re just kids staring at the sun and we don’t mean nothing to no one.
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We’re just kids staring at the sun and we don’t mean nothing to no one.
And I will let nothing age me, no matter how much
I’m told I have changed, changed, changed.
And I will let nothing age me, no matter how much
I’m told I have changed, changed, changed.
And I know you feel it too and we grow stronger when we move
We’re just kids staring at the sun and we don’t mean nothing to no one
