A Teenager in Love lyrics
by The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
[Verse 1]
Now you go unseen
Perfect, you'll stay hidden
And I can dream of things you'll never see
Alli, please
If you are braver than the rest
There's little left who could dispute your claim
[Pre-Chorus]
And when you'd finally gone
He tells me you were dead all along
He was wrong, he hadn't lived a day
The way you lived your final days
[Chorus]
A teenager in love with Christ and heroin
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Now you feel ashamed
But he feels nothing of the kind
He talks of things he wouldn't mind to try
Sometime
But you've got little left to give
His touch is not a thing you'll ever miss
[Pre-Chorus]
And when you'd finally gone
He tells me you were dead all along
He was wrong, he hadn't lived a day
The way you lived your final days
[Chorus]
A teenager in love with Christ and heroin
A teenager in love with Christ and heroin
[Bridge]
And if you made a stand
I would stay with you 'til the end
But you don't need a friend when you're
[Chorus]
A teenager in love with Christ and heroin
A teenage girl in love with Christ and heroin
[Instrumental Outro]
