Cobra Queen - Two Lyrics

Spent two years dying in the walls
Of the water filtration factory
Rotting away in those florescent halls
Trying to hard just to make ends meet

We were all young I was twenty one
We were living off Kraft Dinner and nicotine
You were waking up I was coming home
Night shift never sat well with me

That was before we were all torn
Skins weren't broke and the bones weren't worn
Poison and toxin and had to set in
Hadn't found a single grey hair on my chin

That summer you know we took our turns
Sleeping in the backyard under the stars
When the bugs weren't bad and the weather held
Pillows on the trampoline out in the yard

We were all naive chasing down our dreams
Some wanted to travel, some wanted to stay
Seth talked about finding a girl to marry
Chad talked about wanting things to change

That was before we were all torn
Skins weren't broke and the bones weren't worn
Poison and toxin and had to set in
Hadn't found a single grey hair on my chin

Your tenor voice was ringing in my ear
Singing me the songs that I wanted to hear
Something about a painter and changing shades
My god I wish that things had stayed the same

I could always count on
Finding you there
Waiting on the top of the roof with a lit cigarette

You could always count on
Finding me there
Waiting in the back of a passenger van with a bottle to share

That was before we were all torn
Skins weren't broke and the bones weren't worn
Poison and toxin and had to set in
Hadn't found a single grey hair on my chin

Your tenor voice was ringing in my ear
Singing me the songs that I wanted to hear
Something about a painter and changing shades
My god I wish that things had stayed the same
