"Too Adult"

"Too Adult" by Sam Edwards

They were stackin bodies
On the telephone poles
Ma said close your eyes
Its too adult - its too cut throat - its too insane
So do what I say, sam, do what I say
They went door to door
Through the neighborhood
Makin tally marks for those whod gone for good
And I learned fast how to draw a straight line
But I never make it fit or figure which side is mine
So I ran away to university
Where the leaves they are forever green
The science department got control of them all
And they never let them fall
Never let em fall
And subsequently I dont feel anything
I dont know anything or believe in anything
Just listen quietly banking teachers thoughts
Forget where I am from all lifes promise lost
Fuzzy memories or were they polaroids
Holding hands and holding candles
Beg me not to make noise
Were human wire conducting current
Could you feel it
Can you feel it
Am I broken
Coz someone stole my fire and didnt think that I would notice
Stacks growing higher and someone shoulda told us
Theyre stacking bodies on the telephone poles
They say shut your eyes
Its too adult too cut throat too insane
Do what I say
Do what I say
Do what I say
