"Never Been Born" lyrics
"Never Been Born"
These old bones
Don't feel so old
When I'm home with you
When I'm not with you
I'm getting drunk with college kids
Relearning lessons that didn't stick
Telling lies to stay interested
These old bones
Don't feel so old
When I'm home with you
In bed with your youth
The way your skin sticks to your ribs
The way my hips fit in your hips
I'm 18 again
Dependent like an infant
I'm content like I've never been born
But I was born
To a rose and her thorn
When they were about
As old as I am now
These old bones
Don't feel so old
When I'm home with you
When I'm not with you
I'm shitting blood and puking piss
Sweating bile and awkwardness
It's a young man's game
And about time I quit

An unknown group of famous authors
Self-important men with an opinion and a pen
Rewriting songs the way they've always been
I hear your position
But the noise is much too...
The Hotelier - "Sun" You and I'd escape the night and call it summering.
I'd hold your rays and ride for days while you spin endlessly.
You undone, I felt safely strung between all your nerve endings.
So you made waves...
The Promise Ring - "Feed The Night" Feed the night
With alibis that simplify our lives
And justify our deep ends
We speak in tongues
Keep our conversations off the table
Off the streets are filled with ice
I feel all bone
