Lyrics for 'Dreams Die Young' finally

These words feel wrong in every tense. The grass turns dead where your footsteps and you feel dead. You feel so detached. And the only reminder that you're still alive is the shadow cast by your body on the ground through the water of the sprinklers. And the mocking dirt that clings under your fingernails gets harder and harder to get out. The cobwebs in your heart are collecting dust. It's been too long...even the spiders think its too dark in there. As you got to bed he hears you sing to him, but your voice will trail like when bulbs go dim. You'll drift further as time goes. As I'm growin up and I'm movin out there is no place that I can call home now. Just a place to sleep and a space to fill with shit. So with vacant voice and tainted tongue I say "habits die hard I guess dreams die young...and so easy." Yeah so easily. Won't be seeing you in the summertime, I'll just agonize that my hairline might be receding. I've stopped believing. Can't we fool ourselves, make ourselves believe? Can't we drink some tea in the autumn leaves? Let's ignore the miles and forget the truth. I will cling to this for as long as you will let me. So let me.
