I (Oh, I)

[Verse 1: Jake]

Pleasurable grin breaks your face as I offer a clammy hand

The night we so cherished for days has become a foreign land

Where is the manhood I dreamed of for years and years again

A drought-ridden feeling tailored for those royal men

[Chorus: Nathan, Jake, Whistler]

I, oh oh I  (oh I), I have seen the bitter change of things (I, oh oh I)

I, oh oh I (oh I), know how you feel

[Verse 2: Jake]

Cobblestone thoughts sink their teeth into my state of mind

Eclectic as they shift and plot our own demise

Down with the ship as it sinks with summertime

Eighteen years, eighteen years

[Chorus: Nathan, Jake Whistler]

I, oh oh I  (oh I), I have seen the bitter change of things (I, oh oh I)

I, oh oh I (oh I), know how you feel

I, oh oh I  , I have seen the bitter change of things

I, oh oh I  have seen what you've become

[Bridge: Jake]

The saintly boys and girls we throw at them our cleavered words and rules to no avail

A sun-kissed moon is weak with gravity we all know

But still the books of men we pound into our lips, our ears, our skin

To cherish fates deprived of them, at times

Their death is placed with gold

[Chorus: Nathan, Jake, Whistler]

I, oh oh I  (oh I), I have seen the bitter change of things (I, oh oh I)

I, oh oh I (oh I), know how you feel
