about

Taken from the 2011 EP 'Baby We Were Born To Die'

lyrics

You might have some years on
Me but that don’t mean anything
You might have some years on
Me but that don’t mean anything
To me

You might have some fears of
Rejection and all that but at
The end of the day it’s
A fact that we are not getting
Any younger here

I think that’s why I liked
You from the first day I met you
I saw myself in you
A narcissistic egocentric freak
Just like me

I know they’re just numbers
But numbers stand for routes of buses
I know they’re just numbers
But numbers stand for wins and losses
I know they’re just numbers
Mama said they’re not important
I know they’re just numbers
But numbers start the song for drummers
1234

You might have some years on
Me but that don’t mean anything
You might have some years on
Me but that don’t mean anything.
