Youthless

There's a bottomless pit that we've been climbing from Just to get on level ground Shake your seasick legs around Everyone in a logo town Signs of life are stark and flickering I need a bed to lay my body down Dead weight to carry me down Some static is lulling me to sleep Hang your clothes on a chain link fence In a junkyard say amen Your mouth is full of wordless hymns And run-on sentences And we're helpless and forgetting in the background holding nothing And we're youthless and pretending in the bearhands holding nothing There's a million horse dragging down a monolith These trademarks so bereaved Tied my leg to a barricade With a plastic handgrenade They tried to turn emotion into noise I need a teleprompter for my life Need a pipeline to the night My body can't get no relief And this life it goes by fast To treading water in the past While you try to reanimate something that you don't understand And we're helpless and forgetting in the background don't saying nothing And he's youthless and forgetting in the bare hymns tied to nothing And he's helpless and forgetting in the background don't saying nothing And he's youthless and pretending with his bare hands holding to nothing
