The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart - A Teenager In love

now you go unseen, perfect youll stay hidden
and i can dream of things youll never see
alli please, if you are braver than the rest,
theres little left that could dispute your claim

and when youd finally gone
he tells me "you were dead all along"
he was wrong, he hadnt lived a day
the way you lived your final days
a teenager in love with christ and heroin

now you feel ashamed

but he feels nothing of the kind
he talks of things he wouldnt mind to try sometime,

but youve got little left to give
his touch is not athing youll ever miss

and if you made a stand,
id stand with you til the end
but you dont need a friend when youre
a teenager in love with christ and heroin
