[Verse 1]

I felt my childhood slip through soapy fingers

Finder’s keepers I hope it lingers

This wild herd of worry white washes out my innocence

Ever since the science of buttercup light

Under my chin doesn’t work anymore

I’ve lost the taste for better butter

But I bite the bitter bait of truth

A sour face aloof as the breeze one-eighty’s

Find the wind doesn’t freeze one’s face he’s

Changing growing doesn’t hold a grudge

This strange unknowing wasn’t told to budge up

Make some space

Hands up

Fake some grace

It’s tough

Bonfire cinders are too hot to touch

[Verse 2]

A sullen sulk but my tongue was never black from the bulk of dirty lies

Dull as fuck don’t kick up a fuss buckle up the pride of the juveniles

Telling porky pies

Yet my telly eyes

Don’t seem that square to me

Eating greens to grow and thrive

With our forks and knives

Didn’t seem that fair to me

If I was green I would die

Despite it keen on the eye

What if I couldn’t bear to be

This shade of blue?

Da bah dye

Da bah dee da bah dye

Da bah dee da bah dye dee dee

It doesn’t seem that fair to me x3

[Verse 3]

I try to remember the way I felt

Before I fell on the conveyor belt

The cards been dealt and I never saw

Night darker than a royal blue

Crossed the line to a blacker view

The winter’s due she sparks another war

[Verse 4]

B’bye

No lullaby

So I sigh and I might ride the night to see time flyby

Dry out my fantasy life

Vitae is down it hit the ground too sly

Too wry to pry into why

Two tired eyes are too white

Who lied and tried to tell me the sky was mine?

Nine was my lucky number

Call 999

The cloud is crying, stuck in the thunder

Cowed by age’s climb and I’m under

Thumb my palms have wrung and now their numb to the joyful fun of a high five

It’s time to die my child

Obliged to defile the dial I tried

But I can’t deny my supply of youth has an empty vial

[Refrain]

B’bye my child it’s time to die

Ta ta our kid you must move on it’s gone

It’s all gone

B’bye my child it’s time to die

B’bye my child it’s time to die

Ta ta our kid you must move on it’s gone

It’s all gone
