Early Damage

Lyrics

Anna stays in writing all day 100 ideas burn in her brain The child in her is dressed in black And the fact remains, none of us can ever, can ever turn back Anna, Anna, come out to play You've examined yourself enough for today Your thoughts are on paper, they prove you're alive Come out with me, Anna, leave your obsessions behind Anna stays in thinking at night She's shuddering at things that are best left unsaid No visions of innocence being reborn No new directions without being told This generation left to grow old The next generation has already been sold Anna is restless, she's talking out loud Of desires unrealized for mutual good There is no sentiment, there is no show of concern There are only the lessons of this life And they are dying to be unlearned This generation left to grow old The next generation has already been sold She's sleeping, and she's falling She's sleeping, and she's falling She's sleeping, and she's falling tonight She's sleeping, and she's falling tonight She's sleeping, and she's falling tonight
