anne-marie akoh - age you away

Time takes its time
Like it's finite, I find
When you're in a rush pressing to
Change the present
Future calls lure, they spur you, just how
Don't you see that you're right here right now
Days, they end and so will we
Our time has limits and so do we
So go ahead, strive for peace but
Appreciate now for sure because
This is the older we aged for
This is the weight we starved for
This is the time we vied for
This is it, so what do you cry for
I'd like you to stay
Though it'd hurt anyway
I'd like you to stay
Before I age you away
It's when you cross the finish line of the race
You realise you didn't want to run in the first place
So keep your goals close and dear to your heart
But know that the end means as much as the start
I know you don't like the
State of things now, so
I encourage you to
Change what you can, though
Let yourself like yourself
Don't find a way out
So you won't have to know
What this song's about
Stop
Don't let yourself be mocked
By clocks
Those ever-ticking clocks
They're all you've got
This is the older we aged for
This is the weight we starved for
This is the time we vied for
This is it, so what do you cry for
This is the older I aged for
This is the weight I starved for
This is the time I vied for
This is what I cry for
I'd like you to stay
Though it'd hurt anyway
I'd like you to stay
Before I age you away
