Teenage Angst

Shine the headlight, straight into my eyes
Like the roadkill, I'm paralyzed
You see through my disguise

At the drive-in, double feature
Pull the lever, break the fever
And say your last goodbyes

Since I was born, I started to decay
Now nothin' ever, ever goes my way

One fluid gesture, like stepping back in time
Trapped in amber, petrified
And still not satisfied

Airs and social graces, elocution so divine
I'll stick to my needle and my favorite waste of time
Both spineless and sublime

Since I was born I started to decay
Now nothin' ever, ever goes my way
