Newborn History

Newborn History Lyrics

Is there something you've been waiting for
For a long time
A stupid game where you've been keeping score in your mind

You write the books in your head
I'll keep the last days instead
Can you calculate an even cure and a crime

So you come around and we all slow down
So you come around and I tried to wear you out

With my newborn history
A faithless eulogy
And if I can't keep you down no one will

I have seen the bones beneath the stare of your eyes
Have you traded in the yellow hair for cheap smiles

Call you another doctor
This one seems to think you're just fine
I have tasted all your sympathy and I don't care

So you come around and we all slow down
So you come around and I tried to wear you out

With my newborn history
A faithless eulogy
And if I can't keep you down no one will

So you come around and we all slow down
So you come around and I tried to wear you out
