Experience-Gentle Giant

[00:24.60]Once I was a boy, an innocent to life and my role in it, [00:28.78]This world played my game, and anyone a clown or foil for [00:32.96]myself. [00:35.35] [00:41.67]The harmless affairs, and no-one seemed to care for any [00:45.55]meaning [00:46.31]My life was my own, The debt I paid, I paid it only to [00:49.74]myself. [00:51.65] [01:34.99]The unseeing youth, [01:36.43]how can it be so shallow and short-sighted [01:39.06]These years passed me by, [01:40.51]to realise the folly of these unripe years. [01:45.58] [02:29.10]Now I am a man, I realise [02:32.87] [02:34.22]My unworldly sins pained many lives [02:38.13] [02:39.59]Yet I heard, heard with ears that wouldn't listen [02:43.16] [02:44.86]And still I watched and I saw with blinkered eyes. [02:49.58] [02:51.77]But with age the conscience slowly dawns [02:55.24] [02:57.17]And bonds of duty gently tied [03:00.54] [03:02.50]All my sins, seen through now there is experience [03:05.77] [03:07.64]and recollecting act in virgin guise. [03:12.12] [03:29.13]Master inner voices, making any choices. [03:48.60] [05:09.08]Master inner voices, making any choices. [05:30.02] [06:21.40]Once I could rebel and consequences then had no reflection [06:25.24]And I am a man, And I am bound by adult age discretion [06:29.41]now. [06:33.60] [06:45.68]
