You play the soundtrack of your life in your car,
and the hits just keep on coming.
And the strings are all broke on your guitar,
but you have to keep on strumming.
When we were half this age,
we thought people like us ran the game.
Now here we are with no lines on the stage,
and no one to blame.
CHORUS
Gabriel, I told you before - you worry too much
about this and that so-and-so said
about such and such (you worry too much).
The people you’re singing about,
they’ll never forgive you.
And the instruments you’re flinging about -
they will all outlive you.
And you think because you’re older,
The Answer should have been here long ago.
So you talk like you’re an expert on a subject
that only you would know.
CHORUS
We get old and we get heavy,
and we attract all kinds of damage to ourselves.
We check out before we’re ready,
leave the books we meant to read upon the shelves.
A gifted writer, player and producer, Matt's 'Lessons of War' is a fascinating collection of collaborations - but he has a great back catalogue, too - and new songs due soon... Anthony Toner
