NoiseArt Collective - 88 92

I used to live for deliverance
I used to look for vengeance
I used to think I would die happy
I used think that I was one bad pig

I used to hang out with the altar boys
Think that would make my blood good
But nothing gave me a white heart
Except the crucified

Eighty-eight ninety-two
The soundtrack to my youth
Eighty-eight ninety-two
Shaped me it's true

I used to wish I would excel
Put death before dishonour
Be some kind of holy soldier
But I was nobody special

I used to hang out with the choir
And there were days I would wish for Eden
The only one who survived betrayal
Was the one who rose

Eighty-eight ninety-two
The soundtrack to my youth
Eighty-eight ninety-two
Shaped me. What shaped you?

For so long mad at the world
I came to realise I was mortal
Like a circle of dust
One of the scattered few

Eighty-eight ninety-two

Eighty-eight ninety-two
The soundtrack to my youth
Eighty-eight ninety-two
Shaped me it's true

It's the soundtrack of my youth

Eighty-eight ninety-two
The soundtrack to my youth
Eighty-eight ninety-two
Shaped me it's true
