Already Old

[Ambient Intro] (...) [Verse 1] Clocks tick louder when you're not looking, Life's book opens to pages we're booking. Morning dashes replace leisurely coffees, School runs, boardrooms, life's new offices. [Chorus] Days rush by in a blur of sound, In the race of life, are we losing ground? Moments fleeting, once vivid and bold, Are we still young or already old? [Instrumental] (...) [Verse 2] We trace lines on playgrounds and in meeting rooms, Youthful dreams now wearing adult costumes. Seasons flip, our stories take hold, In cribs and contracts, our futures are told. [Chorus] Days rush by in a blur of sound, In the race of life, are we losing ground? Moments fleeting, once vivid and bold, Are we still young or already old? [Instrumental] (...) [Bridge] Reflecting in the quiet suburban nights, Are we living our days or just getting by? Memories pile like leaves in the fall, Gathering moments, trying to recall. [Segue] [Verse 3] Career ladders climb into thinning air, Birthday candles, more than we dare to share. In the mirrors, our youthful glow fades, Life’s evening shadows merge with the day's. [Chorus] Days rush by in a blur of sound, In the race of life, are we losing ground? Moments fleeting, once vivid and bold, Are we still young or already old? [Interlude] [Outro] As the clock winds down, and the shadows lengthen, Did we choose right, what lessons strengthen? In the quiet that follows the last tick-tock, Did we savor the journey, did we take stock? [End] [Quiet Outro] As the clock winds down, and the shadows lengthen, Did we choose right, what lessons strengthen? In the quiet that follows the last tick-tock, Did we savor the journey, did we take stock? [End]
