Youthless

[Verse 1] There's a bottomless pit that we've been climbing from Just to get on level ground Shake your seasick legs around Dead of winter in a logo town Signs of life are soft and flickering Need a bed to lay my body down Dead weight to carry down Some static is lulling me to sleep Hang your clothes on a chain link fence In a junkyard say Amen Your mouth is full of wordless hymns And run-on sentences [Chorus] And they're helpless and forgetting In the background holding nothing And they're youthless and pretending With their bare hands holding nothing [Verse 2] There's a million horses dragging down a monolith With these trademarks so bereaved Tied my leg to a barricade With a plastic hand grenade They tried to turn emotion into noise Need a teleprompter for my life Need a pipeline to the night My body can't get no relief And this life it goes by fast You're treading water in the past Trying to re-animate something that you can't understand [Chorus][x2]
