The Trust Fund Kids - Nothing Really Lasts Forever

The rich scent of the fallen leaves
Bursting bright red and falling down to my feet
A muted gray sky matched the
Sweater I put on
Put on
In a daze
These days
Bleed together in a haze of passing time
Falling leaves
Cover me
Summer brings
The death of spring
Before you speak
Autumn beats
You to the punch
Interrupts (Interrupts) you
Before winter's sun rises above your weary ones
Save everything that means something to you
Everything that means something to you
Before it slips away or you slip away
Like bright red leaves falling from a tree

I'm getting too fucked up with all my friends
You're getting too fucked up and you pretend
We're getting too fucked up when we forget
That nothing really lasts forever

Daylight mutes
It slowly decays
Dripping with atrophy before winter came
Our fingers frozen
Noses cold
Draped in blankets
Weak and old
I'm not ready for winters blows
Novembers cold bursts my bones and kills my prose
Sunlight dying
Wounds fold
Leaves crunch beneath my feet
Every soul deep beneath
Returns to earth
That it feeds
Returns to earth that it feeds
I hardly get a chance to breath
When the world can't stop for me
Time passes carelessly
Seasons die
And wait for me
Seasons die
And wait for me

I'm getting too fucked up with all my friends
You're getting too fucked up and you pretend
We're getting too fucked up when we forget
That the grass is always greener when you're always surrounded by lawns

Too much
Too fast
Too soon
Too much
Too fast
Too soon
Too much
Too fast
Too soon
