Time flies by and you realize that birds don’t
Water only tasted sweet when you were dumb
When you were too naive to walk backwards like everyone else
Drink more sludge and wear more layers
Until nobody can claim it’s you underneath
Only children are allowed to laugh
So everyone dreams of being younger
Of loving without screen doors in between their bodies
Of thinking less and less and less
Until our history is undone

Time flies by and you realize that birds don’t
Water only tasted sweet when you were dumb
When you were too naive to walk backwards like everyone else
Drink more sludge and wear more layers
Until nobody can claim it’s you underneath
Only children are allowed to laugh
So everyone dreams of being younger
Of loving without screen doors in between their bodies
Of thinking less and less and less
Until our history is undone
