Young and Wasted - Hawksley Workman

Old enough to go to adult jail

Lost enough to know that when it’s over

Stinging nettle and a telephone made of wood

That keeps calling

Old man raven’s wings sound like a basket wheezing

Growing up so cold in a wartime bungalow

You were such a show-off

Brushing your teeth before bed even when we were both so drunk and stoned

And laughing and falling down

And i just feel asleep and started dreaming

We/they were both so beautiful

So young and wasted

And now we judge ourselves in empty hotel bars

Fisheye lns distortion and hating who we are

It’s our dirty little scret we love to celebrate like a national holiday

We’re screaming through shut bathroom doors like enemies

We/they were both so beautiful

So young and wasted

Don’t look me in the eyes

Look me in the device

We/they were both so beautiful

So young and wasted
