Vice and Joy

Boys like us don't last that long We don't turn into old men And we don't sing our old songs Caution to the wind Is so Goddamned slow We'll throw caution to the flame And we'll watch it explode Someone might see it Someone might care But as soon as they notice We won't be there As sure as the stars in your narrow sky We're the ghost of a sequence Written in time We don't own anything So we don't owe anything There won't be one single trace Of us left on this place Anyway, any way So if it's all for not Then why not all at once Just pack up all my Vice and Joy and shoot me into the Sun We want so desperately to be heard Oh we pine and we sigh Over every word The mistakes we make Onward to that flame They're just mile markers telling us How far away We don't own anything So we don't owe anything There won't be one single trace Of us left on this place Anyway, any way So if it's all for not Then why not all at once Just pack up all my Vice and Joy And shoot me into the Sun I know its too late It always was And it always will be For boys like us And it always will be For boys like us
