Permanent |
| When I was just a kid |
| I wished that I could be permanent |
| And my bones would shake at the thought of change |
| Afraid to shut my eyes |
| Awake with the lights on |
| I wished everything could remain in one place |
| And I’m not sure if other kids ever did the same |
| I would stare into the mirror at my face |
| And at the risk of sounding vain |
| I’d imagine what I’d look like with hair turned grey |
| With no brighter days |
| With wrinkled skin |
| Eyes sunken in |
| I remember hearing fables about a fountain to make us ageless |
| A phony sense of security and confidence |
| We are not permanent |
| We are not permanent |
| And for a while I didn’t give a shit |
| I wasn’t scared of anything |
| Yeah, being naive sure had its benefits |
| Realities that I couldn’t deal with |
| I did my best to keep separate |
| Anything but actual acknowledgement |
| We are not permanent |
| We are not permanent |
| We are not permanent |
| We are not permanent |
| I remember hearing fables about a fountain to make us ageless |
| We are not permanent |
| A phony sense of security and confidence |
| We are not permanent |
| Like the false promise of God and a life that never ends |
| We are not permanent |
| Anything but accepting what we’re told by common sense |
| We are not permanent |
