Lyrics

We were young
When the days all seemed to bend to our tongues
Set, sounding out what we soaked in
We believed, by the lights of birthday candles
We sealed our fate
Something seems wrong but if I go along I am safe
For the king, and by sword or by slander agree, while
Line by line we lay them down in a field
And by lights of altar candles we sealed our faith
Something seems wrong but if I go along I am saved
Killing the mood, he meets me half past noon, with a head full of horrors and rue
Just relax, my ridiculous one
So we're told
Twenty years of preparation before you start
Then bury me in credit cards
So I plugged myself in to debt and decree
Till all the fight I had left was taught, bought
And bored from me
While débutantes danced students sat in their desks
And the lights from their tellies did glow. (lights did glow)
And from these small fictions
We learned our convictions
Which threats can be laid to control. (Hold still)
I didn't want to clash, so I bet the past
I'm not mad that I lost
I'm just mad that I laid down the cash
