I'm moving to place within a
place to move ahead
And turning to face the face that's turning back instead
I'm reading straight through
all the lines I will have said
And slowly draining all the tears that fell inside my head
Crossing the endless tide of
moments out of place
Resisting this impermanence I can't erase
And all the things you couldn't
shouldn't bother to do
Met all the trust you wouldn't put into yourself
You're heading away as the memory
flickers in your head
And learning to live without the thicker skin you've halfway shed
Crossing the endless tide of
moments out of place
Resisting this impermanence I can't erase
Never felt so old
Seems like we've just begun
Without a hand to hold
Never felt so young
When does growing up go
From something you want to do
To something you didn't know
You couldn't hold on to
Crossing the endless tide of
moments out of place
Resisting this impermanence I can't erase
The middle of a story told without
an end
The seeping doubt that twenty years were just pretend
