Tired at 20 years old
|
Memory collecting before his time
|
Recall the old stomping ground
|
I see a tear welling up in his eye
|
No, you can't cheat time, don't let that control your life
|
Hold your breath, close your eyes, just jump in, the water's fine
|
These pleas fall on deaf ears
|
Ears that were once tuned to truth
|
A dated washed up old man
|
Has seen it all, nothing else for him to do
|
No, you can't cheat time, don't let that control your life
|
Goes over your head, you look over your shoulder
|
When you turn back you're that much older
|
It slips away
|
Be what you're becoming
|
It slips away
|
And not who you were
|
It slips away
|
Grab hold of the here and now while you still have the chance
|
So are you giving up now?
|
As for adventures you've had your fill
|
Who says you're over the hill?
|
I think it was you and you know very well
|
No, you can't cheat time, don't let that control your life
|
Goes over your head, you look over your shoulder
|
When you turn back you're that much older
|
It slips away
|
Be what you're becoming
|
It slips away
|
And not who you were
|
It slips away
|
Grab hold of the here and now while you still have the chance
|
You're holding yourself back
|
(Turn your face to the day)
|
When you could be doing anything
|
(Don't just dig your own grave)
|
When will you trust yourself
|
(Take with you what you learn)
|
The same as I do
|
(Be yourself, not who you were)
|
I want to see you use your capabilities
|
Build me an ocean then destroy it with your eyes
|
