The Fleeting Moment Lyrics

I don't feel up to the task

Of living a life that matters

I'm stuck in my own head all the time

I don't like these things I've seen

Slides have replaced the ladders

Days keep passing through me

And I'm resigned

That I'm not getting older

I'm only growing more hair upon my face

So I seem mature, and my shoulders

Appear as a more attractive space

To lie on, to cry on

Something you never felt that you could explain is something that I will forever chase

You once told me cigarettes are death on a buffet platter

But I still see you taking puffs outside

They all did coke and laughed at me

The virgin, the younger brother

I wish I hadn't seen that before my time

Cause I'm not getting older

I'm only growing more hair upon my face

So I seem mature and my shoulders

Appear as a more attractive space

To lie on, to cry on

Something you never felt that you could explain is something that I will forever chase

This fleeting moment is gonna get me

It's gonna bring me down

That fleeting moment is gonna get me

It's gonna put me in the ground

This fleeting moment is gonna get me

You mark my words

It's gonna pull us down

That fleeting moment is gonna get me

It's gonna put me in the ground
