Ahead By A Century

First thing we'd climb a tree
And maybe then we'd talk
Or sit silently
And listen to our thoughts
With illusions of someday
Cast in a golden light
No dress rehearsal
This is our life


And that's where the hornet stung me
And I had a feverish dream
With revenge and doubt
Tonight we smoke them out


You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century


Stare in the morning shroud
And then the day began
I tilted your cloud
You tilted my hand
Rain falls in real time
And rain fell through the night
No dress rehearsal, this is our life


But that's when the hornet stung me
And I had a serious dream
With revenge and doubt
Tonight we smoked them out


You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
And disappointing you is gettin' me down

[Verse 1]
First thing we'd climb a tree
And maybe then we'd talk
Or sit silently
And listen to our thoughts
With illusions of someday
Cast in a golden light
No dress rehearsal
This is our life

[Pre-Chorus]
And that's where the hornet stung me
And I had a feverish dream
With revenge and doubt
Tonight we smoke them out

[Chorus]
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century

[Verse 2]
Stare in the morning shroud
And then the day began
I tilted your cloud
You tilted my hand
Rain falls in real time
And rain fell through the night
No dress rehearsal, this is our life

[Pre-Chorus]
But that's when the hornet stung me
And I had a serious dream
With revenge and doubt
Tonight we smoked them out

[Chorus]
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
And disappointing you is gettin' me down
