 x4
 I saw myself  in an alley.  This was  me ten years from  now.
  He said, "Hey  kid don't  you remember when I  never got older?
  Hey  kid don't  you remember that I  never got older?"
 
  We  burn houses bigger than this.
  With  a three car garage with no cars in it.
  Everybody's  coming but nobody's  leaving.
  From  outside I can see right into
  a  table for four with the third chair missing.
  It's  upside down from reflections  on silverware.
 Verse 2 same as first
 They all want to be helpful. I am not one of those people.
 I just sit and wait for grass so green that there is no other side.
 Birds that sing with English accents a melody out of time.
 We're just slipping away.
 Chorus 2 same as first
 x2
 Chorus 3 and 4 same as first
