The years have come and gone, I’ve settled down
Tied down to what I’ve found
But anyhow it looks alright
The change we all desire, it doesn’t come
I’ve learnt to count what I’ve got
And what I’ve got is enough
When the day is done who’ll still be by your side?
Have we lost ourselves inside the truth we hide?
I don’t care if my life remains the same each year
Carry on, do your best even when it hurts to care
Change is compiling
All the things you stole, composed, rewrite
So precise but insincere
Now tell me something
In the words of a parable recite
Shine a light on our lives
Our former culture’s changing every day
You taught me how to look the other way, not my own
Maybe we’re all too smart but ignorant
It takes a lot to say we might be wrong
That’s the truth
Who could tell they’ll paralyse the system?
Poor advice when you flirt with superstition
20 years to realise that I’ve done something right
Letting go of the things I couldn’t justify
