They say elders gain the wisdom of years |
|
As time goes by, I fear... |
|
growing up and feeling like the best years are done |
|
Spend life waiting for things that never come, and... |
|
Hope |
|
When living through the memories of youth |
|
Hope |
|
When repetition guides you |
|
Hope |
|
When wondering how you wound up this way |
|
I hope the wisdom's worth the wait |
|
Life's mold gradually enfolds you |
|
Uniqueness given up to be accepted by your peers |
|
Come in from your 9 to 5 |
|
Hang your coat and tie |
|
High School yearbook's still on the nightstand... |
|
Hope |
|
When living through the memories of youth |
|
Hope |
|
When repetition guides you |
|
Hope |
|
When wondering how you wound up this way |
|
I hope the wisdom's worth the wait |
|
Salutations and 'How's your day been?' |
|
routine superficial conversations |
|
Gotten too deep, but somehow you keep |
|
working to afford another day you'll live to hate |
|
Hope |
|
When living through the memories of youth |
|
Hope |
|
When repetition guides you |
|
Hope |
|
When wondering how you wound up this way |
|
I hope I never fall in line |
|
I've seen it one too many times |
|
I hope the wisdom's worth the wait |
