[Verse 1]Walking around at nightFighting my appetiteEvery kid in cutoffs could be youRemember when we used to meet?At the bottom of Mobile StreetAnd do what the broken people do[Chorus 1]Are you still taking notes?The Holy Ghost could get inside youYou'd do whatever you put your mind toWill you read me what you wrote?When we were locked outside the buildingOver encouraged, only children[Verse 2]Cold coffee on the fire escapeWe bet it all on a demo tapeWhen we still had something left to stealRemember when we took too much?To get a little of the human touchHand to mouth and reel to reel[Chorus 2]Are you still taking notes?Hydrocodone in your backpackMaybe these words will hold the beast backWill you read me what you wrote?The one I said you stole from DylanOver encouraged, only children[Bridge]"Heaven's wasted on the dead"That's what your mama saidAnd the hearse was idling in the parking lotShe said you thought the world of meAnd you were glad to seeThey finally let me be an astronaut[Chorus 3]Are you still taking notes?Will you have anyone to talk to?Castle walls that you could walk throughAnd do the dead believe in ghosts?Or are you lost in some old buildingWith over encouraged only children?
