I said I walk on floorboards made of dust, whispering, every breath, you've touched pushing tear drops down tear ducts hoping for sin to fall off crying stories of sacrifice the children listen far too much your stories have grown bitter old man the children deserve better I said I've known shadows make better fillers pleading, I don't want to feel, no, not that much taping shut my eyes, I remember this fading light the children know so well burying legs in dirt, forts are castles they know airplanes are really seats that fly building houses in the sky I said I was a child once You said, why the rush jack, it ain't always time to grow up

oh yea
I said I walk on floorboards made of dust, whispering, every breath, you've touched pushing tear drops down tear ducts hoping for sin to fall off crying stories of sacrifice the children listen far too much your stories have grown bitter old man the children deserve better I said I've known shadows make better fillers pleading, I don't want to feel, no, not that much taping shut my eyes, I remember this fading light the children know so well burying legs in dirt, forts are castles they know airplanes are really seats that fly building houses in the sky I said I was a child once You said, why the rush jack, it ain't always time to grow up
