Oh a warm hello Would be apropos We haven't spoke in several weeks But solitude tends to be the move So you probably won't hear from me And there was one relief in the changing trees The contrails that cut the sky But pre-arranged circumstances change And I'd be lying if I said I'm fine Catch her in the switchbacks in the line Switching back to central standard time Each day slightly more resigned Trying to make some sense of life So if we take off You could quit your day job We'd call ourselves the Angel Youth You'll find us traveling and making tunes But then I think of All the people we've loved How they'll be growing older soon How it's true for me and you So I convalesced in the middle west And fell for Ohio's roads I'm standing still by the window sill Where I once watched the world explode So when it's looking dark in your narrative arc I'm here and you can talk with me A hackneyed fool under facist rule Wasting days singing bout his dreams All of which has lead me to believe Earth's a set and life's the movie screen And every dream that you have inbetween They'll fade with every frame you see Oh is it self-hate I wish I was in LA Far from all the roads we knew Unworried where we're going to So if we take off You could quit your day job We'd call ourselves the Angel Youth We're coming to a town near you Lonely and outraged Guess for now that I'll wait For generation Angel Youth To point me towards a higher truth It's on the off-chance We never come to cross hands Cause it's too late to not pretend And I'd for all of this to end Just glad that I could be your friend
