i was scared i’d always be the kind of secret that you keep
and spill to blue-eyed strangers when you’ve had too much to drink
yours is still a face that i can draw from memory
i wonder if you ever think of me
i heard the west was won over amplifier hums
and turned to 3d movies once the audience was gone
maybe it was nothing more than salt on screaming slugs
now can we just call it what it was?
you walk through life with guilt to spare
a cloud that trails you everywhere
you’re so young, it’s so unfair
beyond your years, beyond repair
beyond your years, beyond repair
we drink until we speak like we’re pulling out loose teeth
and wrote of all our missives down in disappearing ink
you could match them blow-for-blow and never miss a beat
while i’ll just wince and turn the other cheek
you walk through life with guilt to spare
a cloud that trails you everywhere
you’re so young, it’s so unfair
beyond your years, beyond repair
beyond your years, beyond repair
but that’s a different story
for a different day
you know they’re gonna worry either way
you walk through life with guilt to spare
a cloud that trails you everywhere
you’re so young, it’s so unfair
beyond your years, beyond repair
beyond your years, beyond repair
