Festivals of Greater Masks

Would you drink this now?

Would you pour one out for the old you?

You're all Twenty-One, but it broke you down

Like it's supposed to

You would always shake

When you felt this way

And only I would know

Now its everyday

That you smile and say

That you're "only cold"

The Devil won't sleep tonight

so why should you and I?

the past is only embers

But it's burning you alive

You haven't cried in ages

But you couldn't if you tried

You've been in bed for weeks

Half dead, but still can't sleep

But you still don't feel alive

And I won't blame you

For trying to forget

But just don't lock the rest of us outside

Put the gun down, darlin'

I don't care if it don't click

It's just a case of mid-youth crisis

It's all it is

And you'll grow out of your secrets

When the shivers quit
