Grandchildren

(albüm: Exit Signs - 2020)

They say the grass is greener on the other side
And I say that's a sick way to justify
'Cause I've seen both with all sorts of butterflies
Well, there I go, just telling another lie

I've lived with passion
And I've lived with fear
All these dreams'll just be a tale
That all my grandchildren will hear
But I'm not worried
I'm not scared of it at all
'Cause I know myself, and
I won't stop un
Til the curtain calls
'Cause it's worth it all

I've done a thing or two I used to regret
I've seen some things that I will never forget
I've been to the valley of the shadow of death
And I loved every step 'cause it helps savor every breath
And yes I confess that I steered a ship and it wrecked
Cause and effect of a captain punching holes in the deck
Gather round, kids, here's a point of view
That your gramps has been dying to share with you

Yeah, I've lived with passion
And I've lived with fear
Now I've got a thing or two
For all you grandchildren to hear
Don't ever worry
I will catch you if you fall
But I know you well, and
I can tell that
Oen day you'll stand tall
And it's worth it all

So hold me
I guess I'm scared to trip and fall
'Cause I know myself, and I
Hope like hell that I
Hear the curtain call
