Touch down, cold night
In the white fluorescent light
Crossed the water, shaking off the wine
It's frosty in the air
You're lost and then you're there
You get your things and follow sign to sign
Callow and thin
Is the night that takes you in
Tracing every station on the map
And every step you take
Another choice to fake
A mind that doesn't bend is bound to snap
Seems something is the same and something's gone
But here's another song
It's funny how we're old enough to say
That was years and years away
Here now, mild night
Filled my head with fear and fight
Every poison I could find I drank it
Always rush to raise the bet
But the stakes are never set so
Take the word from out my mouth before I bank it
I'm whiling out the time behind this room
But here's another tune
It's funny how we're old enough to say
That was years and years away
Somewhere, old child
You're still creeping in the aisles
And fear is still a thing that you enjoy
See you ride from state to station
Still you laugh at your creations
While I'm living with your notebooks and your toys
Got too much love to keep a grudge for time
But here's another line
It's funny how we're old enough to say
That was years and years away
I'm hoping when I'm old I can let go
Of all this tell and show
I wonder who I'm kidding when I say
That was years and years away
