It’s not so much the words as where I was then swaying to the music in my parents den on the corners of the jackets masking tape with a name the ridges we’ve both felt the songs we share the same my mind will fade or so i’m told I hope I remember the songs from when I was twenty years old i could cry from the nostalgia some people just put it best sometimes words fall short but this ones not like the rest feeling empathy with the same words from when we were teens feeding the rhythm of your breath wont turn it off, just so we can breathe my mind will fade or so i’m told I hope I remember the songs from when I was ten years old the song’s remain the same while our voices they grow old they heal slower as we age now we’re still pushing through the folds we’ll search for meaning from the songs we first sang when we were kids the greats still fold from the pressure a better choice to remain hid my mind will fade or so im told I hope I still remember those songs when I am old
