Slope - The Jet Age
The summer nights grew longer before my eyes
And suddenly it was fall
And it was like I hadn't seen you at all
And we can never go back
The quiet life's the life for me
I'll die quietly
But that's a lie
God knows I don't wanna die
Don't let my boy
See his old man cry
If I can't change for you
Then I can't change at all
My life defined by slope
Delineating a free fall
The grass shrinks
From cooler breeze
And murmurs half-hearted pleas
That it knows no one will hear
Kinda reminds me of me
There was a spark in your eye
Only to find it can't be returned
Have you resigned yourself
To your loss
Me I can't forget how it burned
If I can't change for you
Then I can't change at all
My life defined by slope
Delineating a free fall
