Just Fade Away

Where are you going my fine young friend

The path that you follow has come to an end

Your journey continues but which way to go

So many choices but only you know

The world that we live in moves quickly you see

Make your decisions or just cease to be

For death comes to quickly for those who stand still

So follow your dreams accomplish at will

So many voices will echo the way

And so many listen the words they say

And those that deny will squander the day

And slowly but surely just fade away

Where are you going my fine young friend

The honor of ages are left to defend

A trendy yet subtle approach to the day

And when you speak they will hear what you say

For age does not maturity make

The wisdom of years have all been a fake

For wisdom won’t come with the number of years

But how will you stop and open your ears

So many voices will echo the way

And so many listen the words that they say

And those that deny will squander the day

And slowly but surely just fade away

So where are you going my fine young friend
