We Burn Houses lyrics

Song information

Artist: Socratic
Album: Lunch For The Sky

Lyrics

I saw myself in an alley
This was me ten years from now
He said, "hey kid don't you remember that I never get older?
Hey kid don't you remember that I'll never get older?"

We burn houses bigger than this
With a three car garage with no cars in it
Everybody's coming but nobody's leaving
From outside I can see right into a table for four with the third chair missing
It's upside down from reflections on silverware

They all want to be helpful
I am not one of those people
I just sit and wait for grass so green that there is no other side
Birds that sing with english accents a melody out of time
We're just slipping away
