Nineteen and Aimless

Astride the divide Between childhood and lies Mischaracterised Romantic in retrospect Twenty surrogate sons A hundred ten in the summertime All I knew about life Was a handful of water Forgetting the line between action and consequence Parsing my place between fate and happenstance After a love in which I was so shameless Nineteen and aimless nineteen and aimless Trip down the stairs It's not sneaking when no one cares Counting on Claire And basking in misery Forgetting the line between action and consequence Parsing my place between fate and happenstance After a love in which I was so shameless Nineteen and aimless nineteen and aimless Come with me Bathe in memory Didn't know who to be But I knew I wasn't blameless Forgetting the line between action and consequence Parsing my place between fate and happenstance After a love In which I was so shameless Nineteen and aimless nineteen and aimless Before wine became a close acquaintance Before my college band tried to get famous After a love in which I was so shameless Nineteen and aimless nineteen and aimless
