Kids 1995

I watched the movie "Kids"
And then had a dream about you and me
Where things are different
You're holding a camera
And you're yelling "cut"
In that field of snow
There's no way to know

He died of old age
In the prime of his youth
Cue the lights on the stage
"What the hell happened?"
The credits role
Spoiled, Sebadoh

Who takes that second?
Or a minute?
To think or just forget it?

So when the time is right
You just have to take it with you
Jesus Christ, it's like time is naked
And you feel alright
I'm not feeling too good myself
And so you stumble home
Or back in the basement
And the rocks are cold
But so is the pavement
And it's up to you, but it's also up to you

I watch the needle jump
The engine makes the evening flow
As our morals slow
Absorbed into the sea
And down on the floor
The wines of youth don't stain no more

And even if I was solipsistic
Or even if I am solipsistic
Would it really make any difference?
Because as much as I tell myself it's all real
It's just as real as it really isn't

So when the time is right
You just have to take it with you
Jesus Christ, it's like time is naked
And you feel alright
I'm not feeling too good myself
And so you stumble home
Or back in the basement
And the rocks are cold
But so is the pavement
And it's up to you, but it's also up to you

Fearless youth and parents' truth
My exhaust is my own colossus
How did you get to this place?
How many hits can you take?
And I see the beads of sweat in your hair
And I see that it's always been a lake

So when the time is right
You just have to take it with you
Jesus Christ, it's like time is naked
And you feel alright
I'm not feeling too good myself
And so you stumble home
Or back in the basement
And the rocks are cold
But so is the pavement
And it's up to you, but it's also up to you
