The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone
Am I losing my mind?
Am I growing backwards with time?
Some say with age that a purpose comes clear
I see the opposite happening here
Are we losing the fight?
Are we growing backwards with time?
I was young and love was fun
Now it's so serious
Now all the fun has equal pain
There's something wrong with this
For all I know there's more I don't
Oh the little I have learned
For every year of knowledge gained
Is a negative year I've earned
Folk always told me that my heart would grow
The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone
Am I losing my mind?
Folk always told me that my heart would grow The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone Am I losing my mind? Am I growing backwards with time? Some say with age that a purpose comes clear I see the opposite happening here Are we losing the fight? Are we growing backwards with time? I was young and love was fun Now it's so serious Now all the fun has equal pain There's something wrong with this For all I know there's more I don't Oh the little I have learned For every year of knowledge gained Is a negative year I've earned Folk always told me that my heart would grow The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone Am I losing my mind?
