Deep under the surface I keep the love
Older and aware of a hidden universe
I pray to be young and pray to be inspired
But words of your tongue blister like fire
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
There is a glimpse of death in your eyes
I'm not prepared to let out those cries
I'll pray to stay young, soon will be expired
So lost in denial
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
Reach in her womb, sheltered from strife
Bearing the gifts and burdens of life
I pray to stay young but soon will be expired
An age of innocence long since gone
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
Those who are looking backwards
Chose to live as statues
Frozen, fractured
Youthful laughter fades
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
I'm not PREPARED
BEARING the gifts
Long SINCE gone
Fools who for look BACKWARD
Check your spelling people, this is just embarrassing...
