The New Boy

She was only twenty-one

But so much older than she's now

Now she passed the twenty-four

I guess it's time to say goodbye

Here's the new, here's the real

Here's the life you like to live

Now here's the new boy

Taking on the world tonight

When we met, she smelled like honey

When we kissed she tasted tears

Then for fourteen thousand seconds

We made love behind old fears

Here's the new, here's the real

Here's the life you wished you lived

Now here's the new boy

Taking on the world tonight

Take the words on your way

I don't waste the things I say

When in doubt, fuck the world

Forget all the things you've heard

Now here's the new boy

Taking on the world tonight, no

Why so sad? Don't you like my way of life?

I don't last forever, neither do the things we love

You are wise, this is now this is all the things I want

Everything around us is moving except time

She was only twenty-four

But so much younger than the past

We've laid all our troubles down

And now it's us against the rest

Here's the new, here's the real

Here's the life you like to live

Now here's the new boy

Taking on the world tonight

Take the words on your way

I don't waste the things I say

When in doubt, fuck the world

Forget all the things you've heard

Now here's the new boy

Taking on the world tonight, no
