Turpentine

I watch you grow away from me in photographs
 And memories like spies
 And salt betrays my eyes again
 I started losing sleep and gaining weight
 And wishing I was ten again
 So I could be your friend again
 These days, we go to waste like a wine
 That's turned to turpentine
 Well, it's 6 a.m., and I'm all messed up
 I didn't mean to waste your time
 So I'll fall back in line
 But I'm warning you, we're growing up
 I heard you found some pretty words to say
 You found your little game to play
 And there's no one allowed in
 Then just when we believed we could be great
 Reality, it permeates
 And conquers from within again
 These days we go to waste like a wine
 That's turned to turpentine
 It's 6 a.m., and I'm all messed up
 I didn't mean to waste your time
 So I'll fall back in line
 But I'm warning you, we're growing up
 Oh, oh, oh, oh
 Oh, oh, oh
 I know we're okay
 Oh, oh, oh, oh
 Oh, oh, oh
 I know we're okay
 These days, we go to waste like wine
 That's turned to turpentine
 It's 6 a.m., and I'm all messed up
 I didn't mean to waste your time
 So I'll fall back in line
 But I'm warning you, we're growing up
