Lyrics
Verse 1
Two-ton frame in the tightest jeans
Split the seams at the knees again
Black eyeliner, one good horn
Crying hard since the day he was born
Playlist full of the saddest songs
Everybody says he don't belong
But he's standing there at the basement show
Head too heavy, nodding slow
Pre-Chorus
They say it's just a phase
(Just a phase)
Something you outgrow
But the mascara on his face
Says everything you need to know
Chorus
It's not a phase, it's not a phase
He's been grey since the early days
What's the cause, what's the cause today?
Pin it on, wear it out, throw it all away
It's not a phase
(No, it's not a phase)
Verse 2
Signed the petition, shared the post
Liked the thing that mattered most
For eleven minutes, then he scrolled
Through the feed till his heart went cold
Stomping round in his platform boots
Shaking earth but the point is moot
'Cause nobody sees behind the horn
Just the hoodie, ripped and torn
Pre-Chorus
They say it's just a phase
(Just a phase)
Something you outgrow
But the patches on his bag
Say everything you need to know
Chorus
It's not a phase, it's not a phase
He's been grey since the early days
What's the cause, what's the cause today?
Pin it on, wear it out, throw it all away
It's not a phase
(No, it's not a phase)
Bridge
He's two thousand pounds of feeling
Charging at the walls
Door locked up, done with dealing
With the world outside these walls
Apart... apart...
(Falls apart)
Chorus
It's not a phase, it's not a phase
He's been grey since the early days
What's the cause, what's the cause today?
Pin it on, wear it out, throw it all away
It's not a phase
Outro
(It's not a phase... not a phase...)
(Yeah...)
