Folk always told me that my heart would grow
|
The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone
|
Am I losing my mind?
|
Am I growing backwards with time?
|
|
Some say with age that a purpose comes clear
|
I see the opposite happening here
|
Are we losing the fight?
|
Are we growing backwards with time?
|
|
I was young and love was fun
|
Now it's so serious
|
Now all the fun has equal pain
|
There's something wrong with this
|
For all I know there's more I don't
|
Oh the little I have learned
|
For every year of knowledge gained
|
Is a negative year I've earned
|
|
Folk always told me that my heart would grow
|
The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone
|
Am I losing my mind?
