It's oh so bright again
Another day began
And I'm doing what I can
Out of the fire, into the frying pan
And now that day is done
No battles have been won
Though I've been struggling all along
Wonder where my efforts had all gone
My oh my, have I really gotten old these days
Body's cryin' out while the mind obeys
It loves to obey
Don't know what I want, but I sure know what I'm hatin'
Livin' life as if I was only waitin'
Just waitin'
And now I'm bootleggin' copies
Of my fondest memories
Tryna find a frame to freeze
Containin' what I mean
But this tape has been rewound
Too many times by now
All damp and muffled sound
Artifacts abound
My oh my, have I really gotten old these days
Body's cryin' out while the mind obeys
It loves to obey
My oh my, is this really what I'm goin' for
Not even tryin' to fight back no more
Oh, what a bore
My oh my, have I really gotten old these days
Body's cryin' out while the mind obeys
It loves to obey
My oh my, have I really gotten lost this far
Said goodbye and gave my best regards
To my open heart
