Matt Martin - Hello Jeffrey, I Am Afraid

Hey ay ay ay ay
Hey ay ay ay ay

Gifted as a child, but when you grew up that was all gone
You were scared to rebel and do all the things kids do in movies
Set down on a Monday morning, through your bed sheets you can see me
Drop dead on a Saturday night, and your mom cries but she's just fine

Sayin' hey ay ay ay ay
Hey ay ay ay ay

Sunset in the moonlight and you're drinking too much to be alive
Planet's gonna die real soon so you might as well try mushrooms
Screaming with your new band separate moving painted nails and your dyed hair
What the hell is college, never heard of her I can't go back to jail

And you say I can only take this when I'm dead and gone
I can only touch you when I'm moving on

You wanna be like me
And I wanna be like you
Everything I do encompasses the emotions of the room
And I wanna be there too

Hey ay ay ay ay
Hey ay ay ay ay

Everything but your words are spent, nothing left in your pockets
Gave up on your dreams as a kid to sit around and drop acid
When you dropped your car keys in the puddle, your reflection showed you
What you have become, but no one really cares anymore cause you're happy

I can only take this when I'm dead and gone
I can only touch you when I'm moving on

Through your disgruntled eyes
And your counterfeit disguise
Nothing's really wrong if you're getting everything right
Here's to where we'll never die

Hey ay ay ay ay
Nothing left to say
When you finally die you'll have to look me in the eye (Hey ay ay ay ay)
And I'm not good at goodbyes (Hey ay ay ay ay)
