Beauty School - Junior

Godspeed to you our lucky boy
We were barely 25 but we were wise
Time ticks, the decades blow right past our eyes
I still wish godspeed to you our lucky boy

Think of all the songs we left behind
The melodies hide between my memories
If only you could hear what's in my mind
Just think of all the song
Think of all the songs

We wrote in the basement beneath our kitchen
In a house that was crumbling away
Did we write all these words just to take them to our graves?
To our lonely graves
Tell me your pity stories
Sell me your sad goodbyes
They fed my appetite
Yeah, they fed my appetite.

God speed to you our lucky boy
We were drinking stolen wine and getting high
And I read those words in every single line
I still wish godspeed to you our lucky boy
We wrote in the basement beneath our kitchen
In a house that was crumbling away
Did we write all these words just to take them to our graves?
To our lonely graves
Tell me your pity stories
Save your sad goodbyes
They fed my appetite
Yeah, they fed my appetite.

Think of all the songs we left behind (x4)

I remember life without a shadow
I remember pictures in the rain
I remember sinking into your soul
The night we knew we'd never be the same

I'll break the ice then break my back to break the awkward silence
You'll take it all then take the high road, you're taking all my patience

And I'm sorry about the weather
I'm sorry I can't make it right
I'm sorry he left you with holes in the walls but we're doing fine

I've been waiting all night for you
I've been waiting all night for you
I've been waiting all night all night for you.
I've been waiting all night for you
I've been waiting all night for you
I've been waiting all night all night for you.

Think of all the songs we left behind
The melodies hide between my memories
If only you could hear what's in my mind
Just think of all the song
Think of all the songs
Just think of all the songs we left behind
