I sympathize with kitty lies, too

I Sympathize With Kiddie Lies 20 April, 2006

Losses start to add up but at least you tried
And everybody knows this always been a twisting ride
The roses were a nice touch but too soon all fell away
We ain't hardly started,
couldn't call it a party
Maybe wait for another day

It ain't right, but it ain't sad
Shouldn't do like we did
But we bent what we couldn't have
I was calling in the cards
That were not in my hand
You were cutting off your shirtsleeves,
Gonna make a stand
Ain't youth just screaming in the wind?

What could be more wasted than that tattoo smell
Nothing much to say and still you wear it well
A rebel and your tennis shoes belie your mildest dreams
Call me sometime Tuesday
And we'll give it a shake
If there ain't nothing on TV

It ain't right, but it ain't sad
Shouldn't do like we did
But we bent what we couldn't have
You were smearing crimson polish
on your "justice hand"
I was counting off the flavors
at the ice cream stand
And youth was screaming in the wind

It ain't right, but it ain't sad
Shouldn't do like we did
But we bent what we couldn't have
Dominos keep falling
As mascara dries
What's the need for truth
Unless you went and bought the lies
Youth is screaming in the wind

Ummm, Ed
