The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart - Teenager In Love lyrics

rate me

NOW YOU GO UNSEEN, PERFECT YOU’LL STAY HIDDEN

AND I CAN DREAM OF THINGS YOU’LL NEVER SEE

ALLI PLEASE, IF YOU ARE BRAVER THAN THE REST,

THERE’S LITTLE LEFT THAT COULD DISPUTE YOUR CLAIM

AND WHEN YOU’D FINALLY GONE,

HE TELLS ME “SHE WAS DEAD ALL ALONG”

HE WAS WRONG, HE HADN’T LIVED A DAY

THE WAY YOU LIVED YOUR FINAL DAYS

A TEENAGER IN LOVE WITH CHRIST AND HEROIN

NOW YOU FEEL ASHAMED

BUT HE FEELS NOTHING OF THE KIND

HE TALKS OF THINGS HE WOULDN’T MIND TO TRY SOMETIME,

BUT YOU’VE GOT LITTLE LEFT TO GIVE

HIS TOUCH IS NOT A THING YOU’LL EVER MISS

AND IF YOU MADE A STAND,

I’D STAND WITH YOU ‘TIL THE END

BUT YOU DON’T NEED A FRIEND WHEN YOU’RE

A TEENAGER IN LOVE WITH CHRIST AND HEROIN
