It's beyond my control,
This image I have has nothing to hold,
You look at me now,
See me clear as day,
Not knowing that something changed along the way,
Can't understand,
That I haven't had these thoughts all along,
Something must have made me strong,
We spend all our lives trying to know,
But we never took the time to watch ourselves grow.
Slipped right beneath me,
When did this occur?
We forget that we were once the youth of the world.
It's beyond my perception,
Trying to form this difficult conception,
Taste of morning dew in my head,
This new thought that rises with the day,
For some reason in my mind,
I've always been the same size,
I don't recall ever being so dependent,
Maybe we'd understand if we were more willing to know,
If we only took the time to watch ourselves grow.
