lyrics

Hopeful worlds in shining purple suns with leaves of gold
But it wont mean a dime
Your time spent getting old
Your time spent winning Lottery’s gold
Senseless rain, since less is pain
Heres some water for your thoughts
Were all insane
We cant quit the game
When youre up in space they all look the same
Heres a dirty bill
Heres a bucket for the castles you’ve built

Stay open, open to the compliments and space
If you care, care about the way I make you say

You don’t have to know, you don’t ever have to know
Welcome to the show

Sentiment is meant that happy feelings on the hill
Will never come down to us
Your time spent making love
Is time spent pleasing angels above
Represent your discontent
Take the first from second thought
We’re all the same
But youre not kissing me
Youre the dream sprout from realities seed
Will we vegetate? Will we stop now
Or accelerate home.

I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow old (x4)
(we know it’s a lie)
I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow old
(we know it’s a lie)
I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow old
(we know it’s a lie, are you ok?)
I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow, I don’t wanna grow old
(we know it’s a lie, wake up!)
Don’t let me go, don’t let me go, don’t let me go
(we know it’s a lie, Mommy!)
I don’t wanna grow old, I, I don’t wanna grow old

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
