moses campbell - wallflower lyrics
countless suicide attempts
and all his money was spent
chewing gum and cigarettes
to keep his knees from shaking
he never thought before he spoke
took back everything he meant
and from an early age
you learned to inhale and forget
and who are you?
and who are we?
photographs and diaries
spend your life working hard
spend your life studying
and then you die
and then you die
and then we read all your books
and then you die
and then you die
and then we criticize your work
you figured it out
you figured me out so good
i know you want it
they said you would
you’re getting to close
and it’s all too much
afraid of
the human touch
give the kids all their candy
whatever makes them happy
give me seeds and i’ll plant trees
learn from your mistakes
my parents never learned from me
and blasphemy on the walls
of the bathroom you wrote
god is g-y and no one cares
even if you left a note
your suicide will go unheard
maybe ‘cos you never spoke
you were a wallflower
you were my only hope
your songs never left your room
you never showed your poetry
don’t you die, don’t you die
don’t you dare die on me
you figured it you
you figured me out so good
you know you want it
they said you would
we’re getting too close
and it’s all too much
afraid of
the human touch
give the kids all their crystal
oh god no
make them hate
give them pistols
fight a war but don’t ask why
and oh my boy you’re too young to die
and what do you know
about where we go
after all of this
spent my life wondering
but still don’t know
why we have to exist
to be anything at all
is beautiful i guess
but i still don’t know if i like it
you unb-ttoned your dress
and you gave me a kiss
i’m gonna learn to forget
you gotta learn to forget
you figured it out
you figured me out so good
i know you want it
they said you would
you’re getting too close
and it’s all too much
afraid of
the human touch
