Soon You'll Be My Age
The Clock Will Strike at twelve once
And your ignorance will be proven wrong
And youll be me
And ill be..
I wont know who i am or what i do
But ill know im allowed to touch you
Enjoy your wishing candles
Keep them locked
Next to your childhood rosary and your old you
And relight them on your aniversary
Tell the man you like him when you really love him
And throw it all up on me..
Like i used to do on my bed by the window
Thinking of someone thats not you
Back when i oogled at girls between pillars
When i crossed words up
And tended to sleep...
With a thorn dangling over my head
But youll never be as dead as the lost boys
Now youre always upset
Upset at someone else whos yourself
And your sadness is my happy
And maybe now we're the same
But now
Now ive got change to spare
Ill spend it on the ferry that'll change my life
Or ill spend it on my doom
And after a while..
Youll again...be just like me
