about

I started writing lyrics for this in 1993 when my dad started to get sick, and finished them in 12/1995 when things got worse... Recorded 3/2001.

lyrics

Something’s changed, their lives aren’t the same
Bored of all the things they do every day
If only there was something new
some excitement would be nice
Anything than nothing else
than burning in the ice
Don’t wash out from my mind
I wanna see you one more time
Looking down, you see my face
Did you realize I’d be the one to take your place?
As they stare into open space, they realize that secret place
They haven’t been there since they were young
And they remember all the fun
All those times they spent at play
They must have been there every day
Let’s go back, they think inside
We’ll stay forever, we’ll just hide
If only they could stay so youthful, like in those days
The fun would just last forever, if there was just a way
Nothing’s how they remember; it’s been long forgotten
It used to be so easy to live
Now they long to be young
