What did I forget?
In all my scheming
Is every road paved with its regrets
Or is this gleaming?

What did I forget?
Am I dreaming?
I’m waking up
I’m in a cold sweat
It’s beautiful or is seeming?

Lets all run off the deep end
Make our whole lives the weekend
We’ll party, laugh and sleep in
We’ll learn to love our skin

Lets take back those eight hours
We’d lent to every day
Solely for the dull purpose
of resumes and pay

This love is so outrageous
We had locked ourselves in cages
All those crowds and all those stages
These days here will keep me ageless

Lets peek behind the curtain
I see the shadows large
But I must know for certain
Who is it really in charge

Our youth is passing us now
We cannot slow it down
But we can keep it if we keep up
Can we run fast enough?

What did I forget
In all my scheming

This love is so outrageous
We had locked ourselves in cages
All those crowds and all those stages
These days here will keep me ageless

This love is so outrageous
We have torn out several pages
Are we happy? I can’t gauge it
Too distracted and too faded

Lets all run off the deep end
Make our whole lives the weekend
We’ll party laugh and sleep in
We’ll learn to love the spins

Lets take back those eight hours
We’d lent to every day
They drained me of my powers
But built my resume

What did I forget?
Am I dreaming?

Lets drop or change perspectives
Alter priorities
Live just with for collective
We are the reason we breathe

Lets analyze our secrets
See what they’re really worth
And if they’re gold we’ll keep it
Bury them under the earth

I peeked behind the curtain
I saw that shadow large
But I can’t tell for certain
Who is it really in charge

Our youth is passing us now
We cannot slow it down
But we can keep it if we keep up
Can we run fast enough?
