Now that you're older

Taking the time to look

Back over your shoulder

On the days confusion took

Now that you're wiser

Surely you've learned to read it

You should know no surface shines brighter

Than the light that burns beneath it

Never so sure

We always take more

Though we still

Don't know what it's for

Now that I've seen you

Stripped to the very core

I know that I need you

Less than I did before

Never so sure

We always take more

Though we still

Don't know what it's for
