Slow motion streaks of colour scream and bloom
Rejuvenations ocean spume perfume
Amber statues, precious baby rubies
Forever sacred diamond eyes look through me
Rocks in the sky frozen in time
Paper hearts to set alight
Scissors cut the old flame from the fire
A swirling technicolour cluster throbs
Fleeting passions feed a stoned mob
Never touch or look directly at her
Covet the blinding light of cynosure
Waves of flesh and honey kiss
Roman bodies, artifice
Living slow, the glory of the boy
Sacred young, feel the sun, vermillion
Avert your gaze, be afraid, can't look away
Torrid hearts, rapturous and free
Float inside the neon soul and see
The air is sweet with ignorance and idol
A stinking ripened youth unbridled
Glowing trinkets, golden teeth
Pupils wide and vacant smiles
Smoking halo put them back to sleep
We all get replaced, retconned and upstaged, life turns a page
When we turn away, the kids just aren't the same, new ways to vibrate
I can't hear it, II can't relate, I can't change again
Sacred young, feel the sun, vermillion
Avert your gaze, be afraid, can't look away
Sacred young, feel the sun, vermillion
Avert your gaze, be afraid, can't look away
