The Elder

See life pass you by

Your last hour growing nearer

Enjoyed all pleasures of life

Trying to latch on

Desperately trying

Trying to latch on

The elder want to grasp

The elder want to know

One foot in the grave

Pass on your wisdom

Made the choices and decisions

Desperately trying to latch on

See the world pass you by

Everything seems to fast

The elder want to grasp

The old surpassed by the young
