lyrics

Hey, what’s scary? What makes you so scared?
I’ve never seen you tremble.
You have nothing heavy in your hands.
Hey, what do you feel? What feelings are you feeling?
I’ve never seen you waver.
You have nothing heavy in your arms.

I see obstacles, I see scars.
Nothing that a glass of wine can soothe,
nothing that a chat can drive away,
you just have to look, past the fog…

Hey what did you see? What so option?
I’ve never seen you run away.
You have nothing scary in your eyes.
Hey, why don’t you eat? What closes in your throat?
I’ve never seen you fast.
You have nothing noisome in your pot.

I see a halo, halo in your eyes.
Nothing that glasses now can heal,
nothing that a walk now can improve,
you just have to look,
over the edge, over your dreams, over the clouds.

I’m simply getting old,
the things that were once read are boulders,
the things that were once safe today are dangerous,
the things that once amazed me today scared me,
what I once loved now I hate!

Don’t worry, I’m just getting old,
simply getting old. Don’t be afraid, it’s life.
