Henry Mansfield - Young/Lovely Lyrics

Certainty
It's the Safeco screen
Shout out the answer the ball in the hats
One, two, three
Suddenly
Not so quick to choose
So fixed on the fine print you balance regret
With what you'll lose
Trick or treat
(Tear apart your old receipts)
Bring your old receipts
Sort out the letters and we'll spell out words
Too small to see
Darling
I'm not laughing as loud as I used to
I don't sleep
Could you call in sick tomorrow?
Cause this joke might take all night
Honestly
(Smile like you're scared like me)
Are you scared like me?
Not of the monsters at war and bombs beneath beds
But of little lies
Like sympathy
(No pink pills a full night's sleep)
And a full night's sleep
I've built a prison from read receipt times
Do you wanna see?
Darling
I'm not laughing as loud as I used to
I can't keep
Calling home expecting answers
Is this what I am now?
I'm stuck but don't know how
Both roads getting steeper
I'm trapped by procedure
Tell me which goodbye to write
Hang my bachelor's degree
From the ceiling
Buy a fat plastic bat down the street
I'm hosting a party
Let's take a few swings
And see what comes out beyond candy
We were born far too late for the oceans
And the same but too soon for the stars
The age of anxiety bubbling up
Over windows of borrowed and filthy cars
Our only frontier is our fleeting sense of meaning
And we've got a few hours until morning
If you wanna talk it out
Look at me
All these doors I've shut
All of my memory's got red and blue wires
I'm scared to cut
Darling
I'm not laughing as loud as I used to
I feel cheap, why's the future so misleading?
Think hard with me
Try to believe
We'll make our life like the movies
I think I left my faith inside the theatre
With whatever get better means
Where I cried at the final scene
Showing us with some scissors and foul-line seats
Making choices with nothing but sweet beliefs
Singing
If we can't be young and lovely
We will just be young
