about

A song about the importance of passing on wisdom to the next generation

lyrics

Rise, ageing but dignified
What you lack in speed
Compensate in style

Another day added to the pile
A hundred soft-pretenses
For each worth-while

But leave us a lifeline, a guiding star
A way to make those wasted hours count

It's not fair, but you lead the way
You're no better, you're no better no
But you could change tomorrow

Keep saving your finest hours
Keep your head forward
But your eyes wide

Another day cast into the fire
All that depth and wisdom
So volatile

But leave us a lifeline, a trail of crumbs
A safer way through all the traps you've sprung

Of all the different sorrows
You could think about
Know the tables turn
And you're right to want a second chance
And it'll be yours

Of all the things you know
Paths you've trodden on
Know the turns ahead
May mean that we don't mean again
But it'll be fine
