lyrics

we spend time on couches in lutheran church parking lots with
thin sunburnt eyelids and faces all plastered
in smiles and shiny molars (not worrying of food poisoning)
as we scarf down the treats brought to us by grannies

now i know i'm not young but look at my kneecaps:
they're torn up and bleeding like i tripped in the sandbox

i wish i was with you we'd be laughing at the weather
and trying our hands at guessing men's shoe sizes
wanting to be sleeping, but okay with the air being
hotter than those girls with their grade-seven fresh bodies

now i know i'm not young but look at my underarms:
could i even be this nervous if i'd ever felt lust before?

i still know the rules to marbles and pogs and i
like the expressions of preteens as i beat them with my plastic
you tell me i'm lewd and kiss my nude abdomen 
as we lay in your bed in the dampness of the summer

now i know i'm not young but look at my lips move:
have you ever seen lies formed so quick and so golden?
now i know i'm not young but look how my tongue is tied:
i can't even speak out loud these foul things that i've been feeling

please come and sit with me on the couch in god's parking lot
and i'll move one seat over so we don't have to touch at all
