lyrics

You won’t die from frustration
But it will leave a mark in tender places
You won’t even remember
The sickening parts
In time…

You’ll pick up some habits from your high school friends
You’ll sit in the attic planning crimes
It’s set up this way by design
To keep you guessing
What’s the meaning of something
Amaranthine?
Never fading, never draining to nothing
Amaranthine….

You make a clarification
To drunken remarks and social graces
And you don’t even remember
The holes in your heart
In time…

You end obsessing over high school friends
It’s sort of depressing, but benign
It’s set up this way by design
To keep you guessing
What’s the meaning of something
Amaranthine?
Never fading, never draining to nothing
Amaranthine
I learned my lesson -
Love is thicker than anger and liquor combined
Cause it never fades, it only turns into something
Amaranthine


But it’s all just folderol
A way to occupy your mind
Each prayer’s a casting call
You can’t fight city hall
I think the good Lord just resigned
