Nothing Really Lasts Forever by The Trust Fund Kids Lyrics
[Verse 1]:
The rich scent of the fallen leaves, bursting bright red and falling down to my feet, a muted gray sky matched the sweater I put on, put on
In a daze, these days, bleed together in a haze of passing time, falling leaves, cover me
[Pre-Chorus]:
Summer, summer brings
The death of spring
Before you speak, autumn beats
You to the punch
Interrupts (interrupts) you
Before winter’s sun rises above your weary ones
Save, everything that means something to
You, everything that means something to you
Before it slips away or you slip away
Like bright red leaves falling from a tree
[Chorus]:
I’m getting too fucked up with all my friends
You’re getting too fucked up and you pretend
We’re getting too fucked up when we forget
That nothing really lasts forever
[Verse 2]:
Daylight mutes it slowly decays
Dripping with atrophy before winter came
Our fingers frozen, noses cold
Draped in blankets, weak and old
I'm not ready for winters blows
Novembers cold bursts my bones and kills my prose
Sunlight dying, wounds fold
[Pre-Chorus]:
Leaves crunch beneath my feet, every soul deep beneath, returns to earth, that it feeds, returns to earth that it feeds
I hardly get a chance to breath, when the world can’t stop for me, time passes carelessly, seasons die, and wait for me, seasons die, and wait for me
[Chorus]:
I’m getting too fucked up with all my friends
You’re getting too fucked up and you pretend
We’re getting too fucked up when we forget
That the grass is always greener when you’re always surrounded by lawns
[Bridge]:
Too much, too fast, too soon
Too much, too fast, too soon
Too much, too fast, too soon
[Chorus]
The rich scent of the fallen leaves, bursting bright red and falling down to my feet, a muted gray sky matched the sweater I put on, put on
In a daze, these days, bleed together in a haze of passing time, falling leaves, cover me
[Pre-Chorus]:
Summer, summer brings
The death of spring
Before you speak, autumn beats
You to the punch
Interrupts (interrupts) you
Before winter’s sun rises above your weary ones
Save, everything that means something to
You, everything that means something to you
Before it slips away or you slip away
Like bright red leaves falling from a tree
[Chorus]:
I’m getting too fucked up with all my friends
You’re getting too fucked up and you pretend
We’re getting too fucked up when we forget
That nothing really lasts forever
[Verse 2]:
Daylight mutes it slowly decays
Dripping with atrophy before winter came
Our fingers frozen, noses cold
Draped in blankets, weak and old
I'm not ready for winters blows
Novembers cold bursts my bones and kills my prose
Sunlight dying, wounds fold
[Pre-Chorus]:
Leaves crunch beneath my feet, every soul deep beneath, returns to earth, that it feeds, returns to earth that it feeds
I hardly get a chance to breath, when the world can’t stop for me, time passes carelessly, seasons die, and wait for me, seasons die, and wait for me
[Chorus]:
I’m getting too fucked up with all my friends
You’re getting too fucked up and you pretend
We’re getting too fucked up when we forget
That the grass is always greener when you’re always surrounded by lawns
[Bridge]:
Too much, too fast, too soon
Too much, too fast, too soon
Too much, too fast, too soon
[Chorus]
