| In a car outside, we stalk the idle kind.
If you're leaving, just let me know.
Tobacco and peppermint,
dusting for fingerprints.
A film in her eyes from the glow.
Some rules are made with all intentions to break
and she defends it with a warped rationale.
And I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud
when they decide to try to take on the throne for the crown.
(Chorus:)
And we learn as we age.
We've learned nothing
and my body still aches.
And you take cause they give.
Though I love you
and my body it leaks like a sieve.
When it got cold outside,
smoke beneath the playground lights.
If you're coming home, just let me know.
Sucking on your breath mint,
dissected and stuck with pins.
A film in her eyes from the glow.
Concrete and water,
she's looking for her daughter at midnight in torrential
downpour.
And everything I said about how messed your head is,
were cut up and left in bits and pieces on the ground.
(Chorus 2x)
And we learn as we age.
(Take the picture from the wall,
when you think that nothing matters.)
We've learned nothing
(Take the picture from the frame)
And my body still aches.
(and it's a long ways to the floor.)
And you take cause they give.
(Cut your finger on the edge cause
it's sharper than they told you.)
Though I love you
Take a leap from out the window cause it's way
too far to go through the door.)
(Chorus)
