Youth Screams & Fades |
| Youth screams and fades |
| From the back of a child’s eye |
| Millennial wise guy |
| These days are stealing away |
| Find similar minds |
| Coupled with fights |
| Oh, mechanic, cut the brakes |
| And you will become |
| Part of a role |
| Imperfectly balanced |
| But perfectly whole |
| And you will hate art |
| And say it’s a drag |
| Oh, you will love routine |
| Oh, you are going mad |
| You can’t diagnose what works |
| But know that it does, it does, it does |
| You’ll never know when to let go |
| Of the buzz, the buzz, the buzz |
| The older you get |
| The less that you love |
| The word becomes a question |
| It becomes a bluff |
| You’ll play these old rock songs to death |
| You’ll be cast aside |
| But you’ll be more adept |
| At cutting through these cable ties |
| Deep in my wrists |
| My hands, behind |
| We won’t go quiet |
| Or come gracefully |
| It’s been a long time coming |
| Ain’t it funny to see? |
| Youth screams and fades |
| Decays over time |
| There’s nothing left but you in my mind |
| Scratch away the photo on your I.D. |
| page |
| This is not who you know |
| This is but a strange limbo place |
| That you frequent |
| This is not supposed to make sense |
| (This is really not supposed to make sense) |
| This limbo place that you frequent |
| (I think it’s important to mention at the end of this chapter) |
| This is not supposed to make sense |
| (This is not a hindsight, this is not a mirror at 1am) |
| This limbo place that you frequent |
| (This is not a soliloquy from a back room play!) |
| This is not supposed to make sense |
| (This is not a bench on a public walkway!) |
| This limbo place that you frequent |
| (This is not a defining moment!) |
| This is not supposed to make sense |
| (This is-) |
| We won’t go quiet |
| Or come gracefully |
| It’s been a long time coming |
| Ain’t it funny to see? |
| Youth screams and fades |
| Decays over time |
| There’s nothing left but you in my mind… |
| So here we stand |
| 7.4 billion people |
| Staring into the face of beautiful adversity! |
| A flashbang in defiance of mortality |
| A rebellion |
| A surrender |
| Connected by wires, but never more apart! |
| The golden age of not even trying |
| Your last words, but your first breath |
| You won’t find your saviour on radio |
| But maybe, it’ll somehow make sense |
| In a universe of infinite moments |
| You will never feel this way again! |
| Promise it |
| Scream for it! |
| Here’s a toast to everyone we’ve met |
| Every person |
| Every connection |
| Every conversation! |
| Every moment with your doubts in the night |
| Every hand held |
| Every kiss shared |
| Every teenage romance |
| Every drunk phone call |
| Every mistake made |
| Every fight lost |
| Every hello! |
| Every goodbye! |
| Every cut! |
| Every drug! |
| Every touch! |
| Every fuck! |
| And now, at the end… |
| (Fade to black) |
| (Cue title) |
| (Youth screams, and fades…) |
