when thieves are about - youth decay lyrics

woke up to see another day
i’d chase the years away
suits and ties step in line
just stuck on repeat all the time
(time is flying by)
the shadows underneath our beds
turned into debts we couldn’t pay
(pay your life no mind)
in my convoluted state
i start to crush under the weight
of a universe the size of a marble
(pay your life no mind)
i want to seize these f-ckin’ days
but my youth is in decay
i’ll just dance around the edge of my own grave
all my convictions are sediment in a constant rolling tide
like a perfect night of fireworks i watch my youth capsize
robbed of that summer breeze i used to know
feels like i’m standing in six feet of snow
this smile is all for show
my world’s not mine anymore
the realization: so hard to ignore
morals shot, growing up
“gotta get ahead,”
rather get a lethal injection
hours unwind
i’m left behind just stuck on repeat all the time
(time is flying by)
when machines have no fumes left
can you make the engine rev?
sometimes this life is like a sentence
an era died and
i cannot deny losing my mind
turning to ethanol to shake this
tried to get back “good times”
i tried
i tried
i tried
(pay your life no mind)
in a convoluted state
i start to crush under the weight
of a universe the size of a marble
(pay your life no mind)
i want to seize these f-ckin’ days
but my youth is in decay
i’ll just dance around the edge of my own grave
all my convictions are sediment in a constant rolling tide
like a perfect night of fireworks
i watch my youth capsize
robbed of that summer breeze i used to know
feels like i’m standing in six feet of snow
this smile is all for show
