The Descent

A good spleen venting
Blood on a page
Is that what you came to see?
The descent into middle age
If so, you're in luck my friend
It's time to start the show
I've learned so many things
I didn't want to know

Things don't work as easily
As they did before
You'll find you're not quite prepared
For the curves life has in store
But you pick up a few tricks
Along the way
You learn how to work the long con
if you want to stay

Some things get simpler
There's an upside there
As you begin to figure out
If and when you should care

And you'll fall down along the way
As you learn how the game is played
The trick is when
You figure out how to get up again

A good spleen venting
Blood on a page
Is that what you came to see?
The descent into middle age
