Lyrics

In-jokes expire And mix tapes click off Albums crackle through Candles burn out The credits start Slumber party lights come on Step-dad walks in ... awkwardly College friends Christmas cards Bands run their course Novellas conclude The first kiss ends Totally ends Pen pals meet There's disappointment And there's melancholy Staggering and thorough Especially From the awesome mid twenties At the stomaching That some one thing Will never be the same Tritely put An era has ended But it's always true You can so tell when it's passed It's like a death And you can never get at how it used to be It's gone The holidays pass Red wine wears off A long drive Your visiting friend to the airport If your parents die Yeah, they have to die (Take me home) In-jokes expire And mix tapes click off Albums crackle through Candles burn out The credits start Slumber party lights come on Step-dad walks in ... awkwardly College friends Christmas cards Bands run their course Novellas conclude The first kiss ends Fuckin' totally ends Pen pals meet There's disappointment And there's melancholy Staggering and thorough Especially From these awesome mid twenties The stomaching That some one thing Will never be the same Tritely put An era has ended But it's always true You so can tell when it's passed It's like a death And you can never get at how it used to be
