Absolutely nothing.
I've been jamming with Ben Onore. Pretty sick.
Some new songs i've started. They're not finished.
Since you were born you felt a hunger
That you couldn't fill on stolen bread
So you closed your eyes and reached out and prayed
But what did you think would fall in your hands?
So I dropped a quarter down
But my pockets were overflowed
I'd empty them to you now
Or at least pay back what I owed
Next...
Paintings fall
From broken walls
And the sky crumbles before our feet
The temple of your mind
Was destroyed by the kind
Of dogs who have nothing to eat
But with forgiveness in your heart
You were the first to start
The foundation of recreation
And to those whose lives
Are run by swords and knives
You showed love and emancipaiton
Next...
Why am I so young
When my mind feels so old?
I must have dreamed through
My youth long ago
I used to sense
That the earth had a warmth
But I've grown old and my body's cold
And I swear the stars lost their glow
I can't feel the pleasure
Of the salt water air
Blowing off the ocean
Although I know it's there
But I remember running
From the waves of the rising tide
Playing under the stars
As they glowed in our eyes
Why amd I so old? I'm so young
Children of tomorrow
Before you are born
Know to remember
Pleasure before pain
I was once cradled
In the arms of endeavor
Now I'm alone
But I can finally feel the glow
Why am I so old? I'm so young
