20 Going On...

'20 Going On...' -- Tsunami Bomb Tired at twenty years old Memory collecting before his time Recall, the old stompin' ground I see a tear welling up in his eye No, you can't cheat time Don't let that control your life Hold your breath, close your eyes Just jump in, the water's fine These pleas, fall on deaf ears Ears that were once tuned to truth A dated, washed up, old man Has seen it all, nothing else for him to do No, you can't cheat time Don't let that control your life Goes over your head, look over your shoulder When you look back you're that much older (It slips away) Be what you're becoming (It slips away) And not who you were (It slips away) Grab hold of the here and now while you still have the chance So are you giving up now?
