As I

Every year I get older

the weather grows colder

and the rose starts to fade

and everything is grey

As I look to a new day

with the same damn routines

stuck in the same place

all the motives, not the means

I hope for a new way

to lead the life I live

For Ive handed over everything

Ive nothing left to give

As I pace in my bedroom

contemplate a new life

in my mind I create

my own person's demise

And its not what I wish for

and its not where Ill be

but its the only thing left

thats calling for me

Some days I feel high

cause Im floating in space

in the place where I lie

I can see my own face

I do not see anger

cannot find sadness

but the look in my eye

is filled with madness

I cant see where Im going in

run straight into the black

no lights and no signs

no way to turn back

Some mornings are lit

by the stars of the sky

and my hours of early

turn into the night

I wonder where the days are

if they're gone, gone for good

if I could back and change things

Im not sure I would

My eyes grow heavy

but my heart has grown light

the moment you met me

you became my sight

Now I race forward

waiting for the finish line

but Im moving too fast

need to keep you mine

Every year I get older

and my memories fade

but your head on my shoulder

entices the warmth to stay
