Aurora Avenue - Rose Windows

Speaking from the tongue

Of an experienced simpleton

Who obviously would rather be

An emasculated, infantile complainee

Keep it all to yourself

As it eats away your health

The attention, your ambition

It was the root of all your guilt

Fight fire with fire

And speak truth with every word you say

The attention, your ambition

It was the root of all your pain

You gave us something that I know we all are searching to find

To put it into words you redefined

Something new, something to relate to

I never met you, but I feel just what you went through

Keep it all to yourself

As it eats away your health

The attention, your ambition

It was the root of all your guilt

Fight fire with fire

And speak truth with every word you say

You threw it all away

Aurora avenue seemed to protect you

In your sleep I hope you find the peace you seek

Aurora avenue seemed to protect you

In your sleep I hope you find the peace you seek

You still seek

All the youth I used to know

Keep it all to yourself

As it eats away your health

The attention, your ambition

It was the root of all your guilt

Fight fire with fire

And speak truth with every word you say

You threw it all away
