As I get older
The nights get longer
My body stronger
But what of yours?
I am alright now
But what of tomorrow?
Will it have sorrow?
What is in store?
And as my health seems to excel
I see my friends caught up in spells
Of alcohol and nicotine abuse
My family is doing fine
But age will catch up to them in time
I worry by the phone for bad news
As I get older
The nights get colder
No mother's shoulder
To sleep upon
Anticipating
The world keeps changing
I'm feeling lost lately
Feeling gone
But growing up isn't the hardest thing to do
It's not the hardest thing to do
