There are stories in the soil, leaves cover the ground volumes in the forest, no one reads out loud If I could take them off of that mountain shelf We to climb but no one tries to go up that far now, yeah
We're all too busy working, entertaining Forty hours television and prescription Well, I take two a day to my brain behave It never does but who's to say, at least my doctor gets
So that's fine, yeah, come by, we'll take the off We can kiss and undress or if you just talk 'Cause I've got nothing real, empty space to fill And you're my girl I like your style, just imagine all the time we could
And time's not poison but once you drink it all die So let's just sip it slow, yeah, we can nurse it all night Try to believe that once it's We'll pour round and come back to life, come right back

But I remember counting days down 'til the year could be So I could scatter all my notebooks on the prep school And disappear again a summer's bliss Of staying out, sleeping in and drunk with my friends
