Goodbye To Youth

Another night, people changed, they turned their heads

They hid their shame, hid their pain, hid their memories away

And when they stayed, it was not long, until they realized

What they did wrong and they realized

There was nothing they could do

When they lost their trust, in themselves

But most importantly they lost their trust in you



They’ll suffer now, they’ll fall straight down to the ground

And what’s the point of getting up if they don’t see you

What will they do, they can’t turn back,

The hourglass won’t tip

I guess it’s time to say goodbye to youth



Forgiveness now, its too much reach, this kind of stretch

A normal workout could only work

If you were there to ease the need

Hiding in shame, but now for what, what’s the point of a

Written story if the ending is not worth reading about.

So turn the page to yet another day.
