Summers over, leaves are falling all around
The city's colder, my bones are sinking to the ground.
We're three feet below now, I just can't dig myself out.
You're so different now, tell me what you're really all about.
Why, don't bother. Just take this one step at a time.
So you can find a reason to sleep at night.
Why, don't even try, just take it once and make up your mind.
War is over, we sleep inside eachothers dreams.
We're getting older, closer and closer to the gun.
Will we ever take a break from work and play.
You do what you want now, but tell me what you're trying to say.
Why, don't bother. Just take this one step at a time.
So you can find a reason to sleep at night.
Why, don't even try, just take it once and make up your mind.
you said you said over and over again.
you promised but you lied, you promised but this died.
dead to me and I'm dead to you, through the disguise you're looking through. you're so pathetic but what I would do just to touch you one last time, is that a crime, one last time.
Why, don't bother. Just take this one step at a time.
So you can find a reason to sleep at night.
Why, don't even try, just take it once and make up your mind.

Perfectly encapsulates the teenage experience. Finding this album while still young and in high school was the best decision I've made in quite awhile. charlesjr
