Be Careful What You Wish For

I've come to the conclusion
I don't like optical illusions
Stairs that go in circles, round forever
Whichever way you look at it
Everything is just everything it is
Now, is then, is also later

Scared of all the changes
What it is, is what it will become

I love getting older
I love the hair in my ears
And my blurry right eye
I still feel young and stupid
And now I know it
I don't even worry about the memories
If anything I'd like to forget about that
Be careful what you wish for

A bakery without bread in it is just a room
A tiny bowl with a handle is a spoon
Love takes two but it still kinda counts if only one of you feels it

It's these outlandish observations
That one should keep to themselves

I love getting older
I love the hair in my ears
And my blurry left eye
I just feel more tired and stupid
Because I am
I don't even worry about the memories
If anything I'd like to forget about that
I'm not careful what I wish for

But I love you getting older
I love your crooked front tooth
And the scar on your shoulder
Let's make something young and stupid
While we are as well
Don't even worry about our memories
If you stand right there, I can't forget about that
Not every joke needs a punchline

But they need a good setup
