Getting older and you’re in the wrong
Wasting life, bored on childish fun
Burning slower but the time has come
Fall so fast as the night is long

Now we’re wiser but here oh dear too late
Now we’re clearer but not all through
Watching flowers spin turn the screw
Feeling monster some swollen stolen fate

All mistakes come down to this:
In the wrong and don’t want to quit
All nonsense healed by a wish:
For joy
