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
