I broke fall from nothing much at all and tangled with the uninspired
I read pages of past ages and the workings of a lost mind
It’s the roaring of a bright sky that remains behind closed doors
Remember, these things are no ones but yours
Now someone somewhere is quoting Billy for me
But I’ve got taboo boundaries as they be
That make all the things I believed when I was seventeen
Just posters on walls, song lyrics and dreams
It took more than I could ask for and I hung on the edge of disgrace
I gave it back to wherever it came from and left without a face
And the hopelessness it rides us under a dark and helpless cloud
That watches over us so proud
And I lay here gently cut in two
With a crushing apathy against you
And like a heart of gold, I swing from inside busted ribcage bones
All the way home
And so now before I’m broke again, how long will it be
‘Cause I’ve got taboo boundaries as they be
That make all the things I believed when I was seventeen
Just posters on walls, song lyrics and dreams
