I am out here studying stones
trying to learn to be less alive
using all of my will
to keep very still
still even on the inside
I've cut all of the permanent wires
so my eyes can't make that connection
I am holding my breath
I am feigning my death
when I'm looking in your direction
but any more pent up emotion
and I think I'm gonna explode
I wasn't tired
I'm never tired
Youth will not be wasted on this one
In a dark room
Another dark room
She said hey you're gonna like this
It's easy to like by candlelight if not under the sun
Who's feeling young now?
I said hey this isn't like me
It's a little like there could be something new under the sun
Who's feeling young now?
I'm buried in your glow
Will you take me with you when you go?
I've been following your eyes
Going back and around and then subside
When you realize, when you realize my name
And suddenly your mood begins to change
Then you realize, then you realize I'm gone
I never said I want you to stay, to stay
