No longer burdened by youth
Not burning and open and raw like a wound
And shopping is much easier now
I can be quiet and private and protected
In a compartment tucked away real tight
I'll ride my bike 'til the sun goes down
Singing songs of no reason while no one's around
And when it gets dark I will continue to stay out
With my gray hairs all on the ground
With something new to romanticize They'll all leave without you They
Always will We can hold hands if we promise to go to the same place
At the same exact time I will keep my grasp tight Until we part
Ways then we can both disappear If
I avoid you then you can't abandon me
I can focus on my tasks so fervently
Everything is much easier now
My beliefs unchallenged thus calcified
In a compartment tucked away real tight
