Am N.C.
Just for a second the combination of sights, sounds a round him
N.C.
Sends him hurtling back to the mirror of all of his teenager thoughts and fears

Just like it's done for years and years

Perpetual feeling in the grown up world that's all around him
N.C.
That there's secrets that could be revealed with knowledge and philosophy

N.C.
He might be nursing a broken heart
N.C.
But feeling this way he's just playing a part
D D/A
That's been around for centuries
