A portrait of my wrinkled brow succeeds the chapters of young and sane. As you are, I was that way, and you shall be the same. The newest things will age, and oldest things – unchanged.

lyrics

Verse
Nonchalant of light that was stalling
And uplifting me out of the black
In response, I’m afraid of this calling
That is shifting to no turning back

Chorus
Stray that date
That is nearing the end of your days
You are safe
Just as long as you stand by me
This can’t be
We still see that she’s standing there
We have God on our side and he cares
There’s still beer in the fridge we can share
You are young, you are young, you are young
And the dying of day hasn’t come
Don’t you ready your bed
Don’t you put on your suit now

Verse
I don’t know quite the prayer that could fix me
I should cover all bases concerned
Just in case God is feeling like listening
To the classics he’s already heard

Chorus

Interlude
I’ve scrounged for the free-world air
Surrounded by bitter news
Would love still approach me there?
Would I know what to say and do?
Do I know that the bastards dead
And his rules haven’t stalked me through?
Should ask I for her hand to wed
If I’m just as good?

Chorus
