Automatic Youth

I’m just depressed

Heaven, without you

Crush your sweet ice

You just too cool

Diamonds and fear

Automatic youth

My symptomatic haze

I’m dead that way

I guess I’m just dead that way

Right on

Automatic youth

My symptomatic haze

I’m dead that way

I guess I’m just dead that way

But her heart has a spirit

If you listen close, you can hear it

And it’s something more than when horny

‘Cause you’re something like a discovery

And it moves you like no other

What a frailty to be discovered

Rewind time

I loved you

Who am I kidding with the past tense

Still love you in your absence

Now our daughter asking why I was absent

So when explaining why to our smart kid

Standing on top of the carcass of a flaming lie

Tell her fame is why, I was trying to be like a famous guy

Came inside, baby’s mine

Laying beside you, the baby inside you

I was playing this guitar

Zoom out, one year later

Gloom is rushing down your moon cheeks

Raining now

Explaining why I wasn’t around

Claiming I wasn’t a father to my daughter

Painted lies on my tainted hide

I thought to tell her all she could point at was manifested from joints that I sang

And by the way, how’s that hot water, food and roof under that raining sky?

Shit, now I’m being an asshole in a castle

Sorry, lame was I

Mainly I just wanna be cool, trill, real family ties

On acid, laughing

Sound good, hope it happen

And for this angel, you to thank

My two cents in the bank

Automatic youth

My symptomatic haze

I’m dead that way

I guess I’m just dead that way

Right on

Automatic youth

My symptomatic haze

I’m dead that way

I guess I’m just dead that way

But my heart has a spirit

If you listen close, you can hear it

And it’s something more than when horny

‘Cause I’m something like a discovery

And it moves you like no other

What a frailty to be discovered
