Old Romantics - Max Raptor

Cuts his hand against the iron chest

Not selected over accomplishments

From a gatehouse I will carve my charm

And from the bottom of my stone cold heart

And we’ve come so far

A little healthy bit of culture

Never killed you anyway

You wrapped yourself in cotton wool for so long

And you can’t take that away

Seven sisters make a list of all

the childhood runaways

It’s really hard to court

But old romantics die together

But we rally on!

Cuts your hands against the iron bridge

Not connected by a common aim

Like his friends may claim

A little healthy bit of culture

never killed you anyway

You wrapped yourself in cotton wool for so long

and you can’t take that away

Seven sisters make a list of all

the childhood runaways

It’s really hard to court

But old romantics die together

But we rally on!

Oh!

Have you ever been down there?

Have you ever been grounded?

Have been down there?

Have you ever taken the yoke

And flown right to the sea?

Have you ever been down there?

Have you ever been grounded?

Have you ever been down there?

This stone cold heart never made a start!

A little healthy bit of culture

never killed you anyway

You wrapped yourself in cotton wool for so long

and you can’t take that away

Seven sisters make a list of all

the childhood runaways

It’s really hard to court

But old romantics die together

Old semantics die forever

Old romantics die together

But we rally on!

Oh!
