lyrics

I think I've reached the end of my germ-free adolescence
I think I've stretched its essence past its end
I think I'm learning lessons how recordings lose their presence
When you overstate the message in the trend

I think I've reached the end of my germ free adolescence
I think I've stretched its essence past its end
I think it's academic to try and analyse polemics
About issues that I cannot comprehend

I think I've reached the end of my germ-free adolescence
I think I've stretched its essence past its end
I think I'm learning lessons how recordings lose their presence
When you overstate the message in the trend.
