lyrics

Old man with your denim pants and your face down
Is that fire warm enough to keep the blues from getting to you?
Old man with your faded beard and your balding head,
are you tired, or are you crying?
Have you made your bed?

Because eternity is ready for you
and the event horizon is pulling through
this simple world
that seems so complicated
but the sorrow you await is the same
as the sorrow that you created

Old man with your sweater vest and your long sleeve shirt
Have the colors gone so cold that it hurts to even look?
Old man with your fists clenched, are you holding on
to something that you used to have
or is it something that you want?

Everybody has a limit
Every bubble will burst.
