Lyrics Nineteen and Aimless - Joshua Lee Turner

Nineteen and Aimless

Astride the divide
Between childhood and lies
Mischaracterised
Romantic in retrospect
Twenty surrogate sons
A hundred ten in the summertime
All I knew about life
Was a handful of water
Forgetting the line between action and consequence
Parsing my place between fate and happenstance
After a love in which I was so shameless
Nineteen and aimles, nineteen and aimless
Trip down the stairs
It’s not sneaking when no one cares
Counting on Claire
And basking in misery
Forgetting the line between action and consequence
Parsing my place between fate and happenstance
After a love in which I was so shameless
Nineteen and aimless, nineteen and aimless
Come with me
Bathe in memory
I didn’t know who to be
But I knew I wasn’t blameless
Forgetting the line between action and consequence
Parsing my place between fate and happenstance
After a love in which I was so shameless
Nineteen and aimless, nineteen and aimless
Before wine became a close acquaintance
Before my college bands tried to get famous
But after a love in which I was so shameless
Nineteen and aimless, nineteen and aimless
