Automatic Youth

[Verse 1]
I’m just depressed
Heaven, without you
Crush your sweet ice, you just too cool
Diamonds and fear

[Chorus]
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way, right on
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way

[Post-Chorus]
But her heart has a spirit
If you listen close, you can hear it
And it’s something more than when horny
‘Cause you’re something like a discovery
And it moves you like no other
What a frailty to be discovered

[Interlude]
Rewind time

[Verse 2]
I loved you
Who am I kidding with the past tense
Still love you in your absence
Now our daughter asking why I was absent
So when explaining why to our smart kid
Standing on top of the carcass of a flaming lie
Tell her fame is why, I was trying to be like a famous guy
Came inside, baby’s mine
Laying beside you, the baby inside you
I was playing this guitar
Zoom out, one year later
Gloom is rushing down your moon cheeks
Raining now
Explaining why I wasn’t around
Claiming I wasn’t a father to my daughter
Painted lies on my tainted hide
I thought to tell her all she could point at was manifested from joints that I sang
And by the way, how’s that hot water, food and roof under that raining sky?
Shit, now I’m being an asshole in a castle
Sorry, lame was I
Mainly I just wanna be cool, trill, real family ties
On acid, laughing
Sound good, hope it happen
And for this angel, you to thank
My two cents in the bank

[Chorus]
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way, right on
Automatic youth, my symptomatic haze
I’m dead that way, I guess I’m just dead that way

[Post-Chorus]
But my heart has a spirit
If you listen close, you can hear it
And it’s something more than when horny
‘Cause I’m something like a discovery
And it moves you like no other
What a frailty to be discovered
