Faded Youth - Rescuer

Feel the years cut like stone through every promise made, every memory

And I’ll find a way to laugh as we look back to those days

And what we thought we knew

Through the static of the past we’ll squint our eyes and say

«I can see it all fading away

Fading away.»

It comes to me now as a silhouette

I’ll spend the rest of my life in the shadow of yesterdays

In the best of intentions, failure has found its home

It’s as if I’ve lost my will to grow, finding comfort in stagnant dreams

Stare into the eyes of the ones I love and find people I’ll never know

«The weight of the world is love under the burden of solitude, under the burden

of dissatisfaction.»

— Allen Ginsberg

This new progression seems more like a dead end

Like a dead end to me
