Spirit Youth - The Depreciation Guild

Drag it out in summer slush

A brilliant dayglo green

The brightest days i’ve ever known

Were empty and serene

Cherry bomb, you loud guitar

Exploding out of tune

The chords that rang, the songs we sang

Had ended all too soon

The unrelenting tribal drum

Of all our teenage years

Is distant now, and yet somehow

Still ringing in my ears

Summarized on spools of tape

The magnet realigns

The spirit youth floats into space

It’s making love with time

You are yesterday, you are far away

And i miss you

You are beautiful, you are magical

And i love you

I’ll sing along, you’re my favorite song

Play along, unburied when you want me to

Sing along, you’re my favorite song

Play along, unburied when you want me to be

Drag it out

You are yesterday, you are far away

And i miss you

You are beautiful, you are magical

And i love you

For thee, i sing
