Automatic Youth Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’m just depressed
Heaven, without you
Crush your sweet ice, you just too cool
Diamonds and fear
[Chorus]
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way, right on
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way
[Post-Chorus]
But her heart has a spirit
If you listen close, you can hear it
And it’s something more than when horny
‘Cause you’re something like a discovery
And it moves you like no other
What a frailty to be discovered
[Interlude]
Rewind time
[Verse 2]
I loved you
Who am I kidding with the past tense
Still love you in your absence
Now our daughter asking why I was absent
So when explaining why to our smart kid
Standing on top of the carcass of a flaming lie
Tell her fame is why, I was trying to be like a famous guy
Came inside, baby’s mine
Laying beside you, the baby inside you
I was playing this guitar
Zoom out, one year later
Gloom is rushing down your moon cheeks
Raining now
Explaining why I wasn’t around
Claiming I wasn’t a father to my daughter
Painted lies on my tainted hide
I thought to tell her all she could point at was manifested from joints that I sang
And by the way, how’s that hot water, food and roof under that raining sky?
Shit, now I’m being an asshole in a castle
Sorry, lame was I
Mainly I just wanna be cool, trill, real family ties
On acid, laughing
Sound good, hope it happen
And for this angel, you to thank
My two cents in the bank
I’m just depressed
Heaven, without you
Crush your sweet ice, you just too cool
Diamonds and fear
[Chorus]
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way, right on
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way
[Post-Chorus]
But her heart has a spirit
If you listen close, you can hear it
And it’s something more than when horny
‘Cause you’re something like a discovery
And it moves you like no other
What a frailty to be discovered
[Interlude]
Rewind time
