I’m watching a movie
We pick up in the car
I can see their reaction
I take it too far
In a moment of teasing
Til I know where we stand
With the gods in the front seat
We hold out our hands
Watch that hole down on Aungier
It’ll knock you right off
There’s that familiar stranger
With the high waisted jaw
And the crowd’s going wild
Cause they haven’t seen bed
Another ghost on a corner
With their head ‘round the bend
No room for love or esteem
When your picture is painted
Strip the paint from the canvas
Lose the love if it’s tainted
There’s a reason for action
And that action is reason
Stay awake for the winter
It’s the partying time ‘round mine again
You’ve come to be forgiven
Don’t you wanna know
How far you take it
Don’t you wanna know
How far you can take it
Keep one hand on the bed frame
Play the part of recluse
Keep my life in a suitcase
So I never misuse
Yeah it’s all just a laugh
Like that hole in the sky
Used to dangle the babies
Where you see the the flags fly
And they’ll tell you again
That on youth youth is wasted
You throw ‘em all on a spit
That old money is tasty
There’s a reason for action
And that action is reason
Stay awake for the summer
It’s the partying time round mine again
You’ve come to be forgiven
Don’t you wanna know
How far you take it
Don’t you wanna know
How far you can take it
Don’t you wanna know
How far you take it
Don’t you wanna know
How far you can take it
There’s a hole in your pockets
Where your phone’s never kept
There’s a hole in your spirit
That can never be fed
There’s a hole in the sky
But that hole makes you cute
See what you don’t in the clouds
That’s the power of youth
There’s a reason for action
If that action is treason
But the fairies can’t pay ya
If they can’t catch you sleeping
There’s two holes that you don’t use
On each side of your head
There’s a hole that you needed
Like a hole in the head
Some say the whole point is living
Some count the days til they’re dead
But it never stops coming
That’s the way that it’s set
But there’s a heart in the hole
There’s a heart in the hole
There’s a heart in the hole
There’s a heart in the hole
There’s a heart in the hole
