Young Boys

de Typhoon

I was born in September
And like everything else
I can’t remember
I’ll replace it with scenes from the film
That I will never know

When I blinked it was over
I was thinking my life will get slower
That I will sort this shit out when I’m sober
(But you can better now that you’re older)

I read the scares on the front page
It says we’re waiting around for an ice age
It says our comforts they come with a price tag
(They cured the cancer but discovered a new plague)

I say just think of the children
And imagine the world that we’ve willed them
It’s populated with weirdos to kill them
And break their hearts

(And everybody knows)
That this is the end
It’s never fashionable
In a party conversation

(Now I’m as old as you were when you had me
Should I be afraid
Should I start a family
Raise them in the wild ‘cause up against the city
My love is such a small thing)

When you’re young you have
You have your whole life before you
Everyone will adore you
Grow up you’ll be an astronaut

Or anything you want

What goes up, goes up in flames
And now your choices surround you
And decision confounds you
And you’re pacing around the place

Shows you everything you’re not

And then the brief little romance
You committed a soul without its consent
To live a life as a bone without its content
‘Cause young people get old everyday
Yeah young people young people get bored

(Never went to church
Thought a song was gonna save me
Strumming out a hymn on a guitar that you gave me
Sermon that you spoke will build a fire if you’re smokin’
And our love is just a small thing)

I just called to tell you
I just called to say
Learned all your mistakes
You were my inspiration
And it wasn’t all we hoped for
But we shake it off when we say
Here’s your yellow ribbon
I am your consolation

I was born in September
And if I die today
You know I don’t regret you
Some things I can’t explain

It’s a slow descent
It’s a loveless place
Every goddamn day

I’m ready to go
No matter where you go
I will follow
I will follow
Anywhere you go

I just called to tell you
I just called to say
Learned all your mistakes
Passed down through generations
