Playground

on .:INSTANT GRATIFICATION:. (2012)

Marched on
Armed with plastic swords and matchsticks
It's easier than
The first-name basis,
I wish it could stay this safe
Until the summer comes and washes it away but then
Everything now
Has got consequences

I know
You're waitin' for the snow to fall but there's no snow around here
I know the lights are long
They're on their own

Marched on
Armed with backpacks and lunch in brown sacks
We're tramplin' on
The words of elders
As if they could smell her face
Until another comes and washes her away but then
Everything now
Has got consequences

I know
You're waitin' for the snow to fall but there's no snow around here
And I know the lights are wrong
They're on their own when she says

"You ask me questions that I can't answer, it's bringin' us down
And the time it takes to get here from nowhere I just won't hang around"

'Cause I know
And you know
How this Ends
How This Ends

And I know
You're waitin' for the snow to fall but there's no snow around here
And I know those lights are long
They're on their own when I say

You ask me questions that I can't answer, it's tearin' us down
And the time it takes to get here from nowhere, I just won't hang around

We ask these questions that I can't answer, it's tearin' us down
The time it takes to get to this warzone I just won't hang around

Inside his mind
She won't hang around
Inside
She won't hang around
She won't hang around

She won't hang around
She won't hang around

Every hope you smashed in my tomorrow
Must have seemed like such a waste when my tomorrow never came
