"Esio Trot."

trading in golden years for pillbox rings, anything to help nod off his teens.
your fey words fall on deaf ears, cos' it's not growing up, it's giving in.
never saw myself a chip off the old block,
I'm more or less the shoddy plank that let the ship down,
and everyone else.
my one love - another notch in your belt.

we're alone, and it shows
teens leaking from the sockets of our prefect eyes, oh
leading me in
to another night spent on my own

step one, somewhat a doosie
tripping on your folks porch in the evening
to running nosebleeds along the coastline in a gurney
just to see
my best friends again
and rosy red debutante's saving their lips
for a rainy day, and well

we're alone, and it shows
teens leaking from the sockets of our prefect eyes, oh
leading me in
to another night spent on my own

growing up's just going down with half the grace -
so i cast my flatline off the pier, and caught my summer love in flames
i jumped chest first into this one -
ear mark the shortness of breath in my lungs
and turn my face to the sun

we're alone, and it shows
teens leaking from the sockets of our prefect eyes, oh
leading me in
to another night spent on my own

we're alone, and it shows
teens leaking from the sockets of our prefect eyes, oh
leading me in
to another night spent on my own
