God took a razor, cut holes in our face Two to hear, two to see, two to smell, one to taste An unshaking hand with precision and grace Showing everyone gets lonely sometimes No one was righteous, we all came out wrong Some of us were too short too fat or too tall He kept on cutting and sewing up cloth And he build someone built for a savior Don't be sad, we were all thrown away But there is enough of us crumpled up people We'll find somebody Take a look in my bag, it's the meaning of youth Nothing but emptiness, innocence, cigarettes And a dead brown recluse Please keep me out of your history books I'll be known for the places and hands that I shook He cut us to sinners and singers and crooks Still couldn't get what he longed for We wandered around and we learned how to speak We wanted so badly to pray or to preach Some all-seeing father so far out of reach I didn't even bother trying Don't be sad, we were all thrown away But there is enough of us crumpled up people We'll find somebody Take a look in my bag, it's the meaning of youth Nothing but emptiness, innocence, cigarettes And a dead brown recluse Well don't be ashamed if you're seeking a friend It's a beautiful reason to die in the end It's why we're all here just searching mistakes A little too much like father We're destined to be little stains in the paint You can pick us and chip us and throw us away Some color will shine through from some yesterday So you'll never forget where you came from Don't be sad, we were all thrown away But there is enough of us crumpled up people We'll find somebody Take a look in my bag, it's the meaning of youth Nothing but emptiness, innocence, cigarettes And a dead brown recluse Nothing but emptiness, innocence, cigarettes And a dead brown recluse
