Can't I live while I'm young? Can't I live while I'm young?
I'm bought for the price of a flagon of rice
All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone
I'm getting it clearly through alternate paths
Confuse what you can of the ending
'Cause I soak on the wrath that you didn't quite mask
As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned
But no peace for jezmund tonight
All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone
And revise your despise so impending
Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun
Can't I live while I'm young? Can't I live while I'm young?
The wind buffs the cabin, you speak of your life
And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue
And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue
Can't this wait till I'm old?
Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun
And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue
And watch what I say as it flutters away
But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned
Can't this wait till I'm old?
As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned
Can't I live while I'm young? Can't I live while I'm young?
I plug the distress tube up tight
But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned
Can't this wait till I'm old?
All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone
Not to educate somebody's fright
But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned
As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned
Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun
Can't I live while I'm young? Can't I live while I'm young?
Or mixed in with the signal you're sending
Or more willingly locust the lurker
To all this emotion is kept harmless at bay
