Remember when we walked through the garden
You picked a piece of dead fruit off an orange tree for me
We felt like we had everything we wanted
But now I'm waiting till you send it back to me
And I know we've got to go, learn a little self-control
Before we end up way too old
Polaroids will fade to gold
And we've got a lot of shit to fold.
We're on top
I spent all afternoon just watching horror flicks
Something pretty messed up, about a cult and shit
Feel like I'm going off the rails and I need to quit
It wasn't my intention to relate to it
It's something strange
I'll make it to the other side, alive.
I know we've got to go, learn a little self-control
Before we end up way too old
Polaroids will fade to gold
And we've got a lot of shit to fold.
We're on top
In my mind's eye, a thousand different people pass by
Looking for an easy life to write
It's not too late to save me
Tried the truth so you can't blame me
No one really aims for safety, lately
I know we've got to go, learn a little self-control
Before we end up way too old
Polaroids will fade to gold
And we've got a lot of shit to fold.
We're on top
We're gonna run it back to the blacktop
We're switching to the have from the have not
Make a little piece with the life you got
And never let em fade you out.
