age you away Lyrics

Time takes its time

Like it's finite, I find

When you're in a rush pressing to

Change the present

Future calls lure, they spur you, just how

Don't you see that you're right here right now

Days, they end and so will we

Our time has limits and so do we

So go ahead, strive for peace but

Appreciate now for sure because

This is the older we aged for

This is the weight we starved for

This is the time we vied for

This is it, so what do you cry for

I'd like you to stay

Though it'd hurt anyway

I'd like you to stay

Before I age you away

It's when you cross the finish line of the race

You realise you didn't want to run in the first place

So keep your goals close and dear to your heart

But know that the end means as much as the start

I know you don't like the

State of things now, so

I encourage you to

Change what you can, though

Let yourself like yourself

Don't find a way out

So you won't have to know

What this song's about

Stop

Don't let yourself be mocked

By clocks

Those ever-ticking clocks

They're all you've got

This is the older we aged for

This is the weight we starved for

This is the time we vied for

This is it, so what do you cry for

This is the older I aged for

This is the weight I starved for

This is the time I vied for

This is what I cry for

I'd like you to stay

Though it'd hurt anyway

I'd like you to stay

Before I age you away
