Scared and impermanent by Nost Lyrics
Letting go of the wheel
On that midnight drive
Scared and impermanent
Snow knee high
Thought i might not survive
Scared and impermanent
Letting go of your hands
Ground me to dust with your hips
Scared and impermanent
Drunk and lost on that dock
Woke with ash on my lips
Scared and impermanent
Whats the alternative
Books are no therapists
The world is hilarious
But i'm fucking scared of it
Trying to sleep outside
After our iceland fight
Scared and impermanent
You were gone in the morning
Hiked until i cried
Scared and impermanent
All those art shows high
Those nights where i could have died
Scared and impermanent
Now got this arts degree
Three mice and love i need
Scared and impermanent
What’s the alternative
Is nothing definitive
The world is hilarious
When you wash your hands of it
Perhaps my soul has grown possessive
Of this shell i've made a mess of
I want to make sense of the senseless
And wake up with love that i've dreamt of
My friends are leaving home
Say it’s the weather and dead scene
I'm sick of hearing it
My friends are slitting their wrists
Say it's the meds and their dead dreams
I'm sick of hearing it
My friends are pairing off
Say "it gets better past your twenties"
I'm sick of hearing it
My friends are shouting past each other
About the movies and traffic
I'm getting delirious
The world is hilarious
When you're done respecting it
The world is too serious
And i'm sick of hearing it
I’m looking for better fits
A job with some benefits
Songs with more sentiment
A lover with sharper wit
I want to be over it
Being scared and impermanent
But that’s what they sold me
Feeling scared and impermanent
I've sipped coffee watching
People fight over game scores
Stepped in on a mugging
Broke onto rooftops in kotor
No matter how much time i’m given
It still hasn't feel like living
Empirically breathing
Is that all
No
I'm not so sure
On that midnight drive
Scared and impermanent
Snow knee high
Thought i might not survive
Scared and impermanent
Letting go of your hands
Ground me to dust with your hips
Scared and impermanent
Drunk and lost on that dock
Woke with ash on my lips
Scared and impermanent
Whats the alternative
Books are no therapists
The world is hilarious
But i'm fucking scared of it
Trying to sleep outside
After our iceland fight
Scared and impermanent
You were gone in the morning
Hiked until i cried
Scared and impermanent
All those art shows high
Those nights where i could have died
Scared and impermanent
Now got this arts degree
Three mice and love i need
Scared and impermanent
What’s the alternative
Is nothing definitive
The world is hilarious
When you wash your hands of it
Perhaps my soul has grown possessive
Of this shell i've made a mess of
I want to make sense of the senseless
And wake up with love that i've dreamt of
My friends are leaving home
Say it’s the weather and dead scene
