collide into your destinies
with the crash of your skateboard
and the songs you live your life by
rising and falling with each day\'s sun
you ditch yesterday\'s dreams for what tomorrows bring
so you will never have a forte, you\'ll never have a love
posing like statues of musicians and poets
you are truly an artist
of a common design

only wishing you could be sorry
they are hopeless and scared
afraid they have lost their son
as the lies slip from your tongue
afraid of themselves
and who they\'ve become

and i take long showers
to drown out the screaming
and play loud music behind closed doors
and i awake late at night
as you climb through your window
and i wonder what you are thinking
all alone in the dark
because we love you so much
and we miss you so much
and we don\'t know why
you don\'t care
that we are falling apart
