I chase along a long unforgiving road
She’d blaze ahead and then gasps out code
My voice zigzags; nothing leaves my throat
Just choke down dust; feel it coming close
Growing older growing thin
Knowing I can’t keep up with them
Keep up with them
Sweat floods my eyes again
I can’t keep up
Oooh, ooh, ooh … (2X)
A pack of wolves, they gain on me
And after all, my heart’s still meat
My wave is opaque, nobody will see
They nip at my heels as I retreat to dreams
Growing older growing thin
Knowing I can’t keep up with them
Keep up with them
Time and space just like plotting twins
I can’t keep up
Keep up with them
Birth parts them and it begins
Ooh…
