Wisdom of My Age
I've known beautiful people they've been to hell and back
They say it happens for a reason but there's no reason for that
And they're one blow from caving in like an ember turns to black
And they're one stroke from taking flight
So tired of putting up their fight
And it's true what you said
Youth is wasted on the young
And it's true what's ahead
Ain't known when you are young
And it's true it gets better
These things won't always hurt forever but
Life's a catch twenty two
You've gotta live the pain to find the clear it's true
And I wish that I could hold you hold you hold you in my arms
And I wish that I could love you love you like nobody does
And I wish to teach you lessons skip regret and learn it from my brain
Give you the wisdom of my age
Give you the wisdom of my age
Cos all your circumstances
Seem like writings on the wall
Yes I've seen the scriptures
And I've marked out the pitfalls
I wanna bring your light to life
Give you the gift of my own hindsight
While time is on your side
While time is on your side
I've known beautiful people they've been to hell and back
They say it happens for a reason but there's no reason for that
And I wish that I could hold you hold you hold you in my arms
And I wish that I could love you love you like nobody does
And I wish to teach you lessons skip regret and learn it from my brain
Give you the wisdom of my age
Give you the wisdom of my age
They say it happens for a reason but there's no reason for that
And they're one blow from caving in like an ember turns to black
And they're one stroke from taking flight
So tired of putting up their fight
And it's true what you said
Youth is wasted on the young
And it's true what's ahead
Ain't known when you are young
And it's true it gets better
These things won't always hurt forever but
Life's a catch twenty two
You've gotta live the pain to find the clear it's true
And I wish that I could hold you hold you hold you in my arms
And I wish that I could love you love you like nobody does
And I wish to teach you lessons skip regret and learn it from my brain
Give you the wisdom of my age
Give you the wisdom of my age
Cos all your circumstances
Seem like writings on the wall
Yes I've seen the scriptures
And I've marked out the pitfalls
I wanna bring your light to life
Give you the gift of my own hindsight
While time is on your side
While time is on your side
I've known beautiful people they've been to hell and back
They say it happens for a reason but there's no reason for that
And I wish that I could hold you hold you hold you in my arms
And I wish that I could love you love you like nobody does
And I wish to teach you lessons skip regret and learn it from my brain
Give you the wisdom of my age
Give you the wisdom of my age
