There's a moosehead hanging

From a wall at a bar at a

Nondescript part of the street

There's a long haired boy

Making eyes at a john

By the lamplights hung from the beams

We're at the stumbling phase

Of the midnight waltz

At a bookend to the weirdest of weeks

Me and Arnold walk

Pretty hammered and crying

Hey I'll miss you man when you leave

Yeah I'll miss you when you leave

Coz there are feelings that are strong

And there are ones that are mixed

At the dawn of my young life's eclipse

I was a boy once now

I'm a kind of adult

Catching up on the cool shit I missed

Coz we were raised where the pastors

They danced in the aisles

With a moshpit up front full of youths

So if faith is to lose

The mind to win God

Then I guess I got nothing to prove

I guess I got nothing to prove

I was waiting on the future

But the future only came

In the form of greying matter

In my only father's brain

I'm not afraid of acquiescing

To the trials of his old age

But of missing all the humanness

He'll show when I'm away

And the part of me unspoken

And the part that's self assured

Are belligerents divergent

In a psychic civil war

But I'm a crier and a fighter

Not a faker and a fraud

So if losing my religion

Is the way to finding God

Then light it up

The shadow's in my blood

Oh a weary heart they say

It shatters it all

So light it up

It's bound to be much worse

When you get get get get back to the summer

If you get get get get back to the summer at all

There's an omen now of frailty

Hanging heavy from my face

A kind of existential loneliness

That struts and frets a stage

And disappears unsatiated by

The rhythms of the day

Still illuminating nothing

But the love I turn away

And I still care about the present

And the weight of circumstance

To the muckraking of cowards

And a symphony of sass

While I have questions of mortality

The clear and present vast

They just yell the words pretentious

With no clarity or class

So light up

Their shadows in my blood

Oh a weary heart they say

It shatters it all

So line up

It's bound to be much worse

Oh when you get get get get back to the summer

If you get get get get back to the summer

When you get get back to the summer

If you get get get get back to the summer at all

One time

I feel everything

Yeah I feel it all

And I feel it in my bones and in my fucking skull

I feel everything

Yeah I feel it all

And I never look back

Oh and I feel it in my heart attack

And I feel it all

I feel everything

And I know it's weird

And I fought the fear and trembling

Coz I feel it all

I feel everything

And I never looked back

This fear this fear is trembling

And I waited on forever

But forever never came

Just a latent sense of loyalty

To the things I love in vain

And now I'm terrified of loving

Coz I'm terrified of pain

And of missing out on human things

By cowering away

So light up

Those shadows in my blood

Oh a weary heart they say

It shatters it all

So light up

It's bound to be much worse

Oh when you get get get get back to the summer

If you get get get get back to the summer

When you get get back to the summer

If you get get get get back to the summer at all
