Century Schoolbook Grown-Ups

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You were lighting off your fireworks

I can't prove to you who's grown up first

But my skeleton is still showing spurts

I'm finding less and less shelter in my shirts

If my skin is thin and if my sex is catholic

And if my spend my best dressed days distracted

Then I guess I've had it

Every winter, every winter we'll be licking our wounds

From all the biting, all the biting on our necks in your room

We've been singing songs, singing songs so they catch the rumors

Oh that sound you heard?

Is everything feeling older

You were sleeping in the van again

You said all you've got is the van again

Those 7 inch cuts are how he manages

I said we can use these dustleeves as bandages

Done with the fix and also done with all the promises

Summer had a tattoo of a crow

So I know she was feeling ominous

I hope we aren't conscious

Every winter, every winter when we're licking our wounds

From all the biting, all the biting on our necks in your room

We keep singing songs, stupid songs so they catch the rumors

Oh that sound you heard?

Is everything feeling older

And yeah, 'stevie' seems jaded too

Everything feeling older

And seemingly getting over you

Saying 'I don't like you anymore'

Columbus scene report

Says 'I don't like you anymore'

They've got a pin that says:

'I don't like you'

In century schoolbook font:

'I don't like you any more than what you thought'
