Youth On Paper Lyrics
The kids will write a play tonight.
All they'll do is sit on their behinds.
Watch the stage lights slip until they fade.
'But when I met you I had nothing baby.' said the protagonist to his leading lady.
As you turn the page the ink's still drying out, because it's a tragedy full of empathy, where the damsel in distress turned me to stone you see.
Categorically, it's a critic's dream - sold out!
You'll see.
They are slipping further away.
The kids will write a play tonight and all they'll thank is thoughts of just happiness.
Fade away.
It's like you always said: I'm not here.
That's something in your head.
It could not be just what you want it to.
Like they say, anything that you can d, just fade away.
All they'll do is sit on their behinds.
Watch the stage lights slip until they fade.
As you turn the page the ink's still drying out, because it's a tragedy full of empathy, where the damsel in distress turned me to stone you see.
Categorically, it's a critic's dream - sold out!
You'll see.
The kids will write a play tonight and all they'll thank is thoughts of just happiness.
It's like you always said: I'm not here.
That's something in your head.
It could not be just what you want it to.
Like they say, anything that you can d, just fade away.
