lend me your ears - fluid ounces lyrics

lend me your ears, or leave them behind
your formative years were not unlike mine
the smoke and the beers prevented your decay
and kept you mummified and never fade away
dying every night and rising every day

when there was room to forgive
we knew exactly what living should be
when there was time to forget
we lives in ignorant bliss in a dream
now the drunk and the high
turn a half opened eye to the salad days
and as old father time
hangs us up on his clothesline, he says

lend me your ears, or lay down your lives
the children appeared from husbands and wives
born with a scream and left with just a sigh
some would think it’s sad, i say it’s not so bad
some would question why you have to say goodbye
but when i was high as a cloud
i didn’t know just how loud i was being
i let the dishes burn out
i let the cigarettes pile up to the ceiling
just as the room was spinning then
it pushed a b*tton to reset itself around my bed
just as i lost all hope
i heard what vincent van gough must have said
lend me your ears, i lost one of mine
i’ve suffered for love and there’s no point in that
lend me your ears, ’cause what i mean to say
you won’t believe it now
it won’t help you right away
it couldn’t matter less, what got us in this mess

lend me your ears, or leave them behind
your formative years were not unlike mine
the passing of years has given away your age
it’s kept you mummified to never fade away
dying every night and rising every day
