[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
