lyrics

We made-up a plan
For almost a man
It was created on a whim but you stick to it best you can
Shirking the light
Preparing for flight
Romance coursing through my veins and firmly tugging at the reins

Let's count to three and turn around
Then pin me to your paper town and blow

Impossible boy at an impossible age

Taken to ground
The moths gather round
As rabble swarms to static I'm still looking back to town
So lift up and leave
Stop combing the beach
But this kindling underarm leaves everything out of reach

Let's count to three and hold your breath
Exhale when there's nothing left to find

Impossible boy at an impossible age
