Tekst piosenki 'Novena' wykonawcy Creeper

Humble moon, what now do I do?
A restaurants' plastic glass
At house party with your hip flask
Has he kept you precious like a locket?
The pale night alive
Through your jeans tight, cigarette box outline in your pocket

We're in the bathroom
And you perch on the sink
I begin to infatuate, exasperate, resuscitate
By day the cat sleeps, but at night how he moans
Through the window's perspex
We sit and talk about sex 'cause it's all we have in common
Don't you know

And it's youth
Ever fading youth
Would you have lived differently if you had known
This life was on loan?

I recall the blue first night I met you
Gaze through the passing time
Your hair was henna and wine
The contrast in what I dream and reality
Took you back from the club while your friends all did drugs
We never spoke about love
Just mortality

And it's youth
Ever fading youth
Would you have lived differently if you had known
This life was on loan?

And it's youth
Ever fading youth
Would you have lived differently if you had known
This life was on loan?

All of these nights you just trawl the same streets
Tell the same stories, you count the heart beats
Obsess with the death of the miracle days
I can feel all your dreams start to flicker and fade

And it's youth
Ever fading youth
Would you have lived differently if you had known
This life was on loan?

Youth
Ever fading youth
