Everyday I wake up and look into the mirror.
I hate the aging man I see, but he's all I see appear.
Why must we age? Why grow old? The older that we get,
people lose there interest and compassion... they forget.
Just because I'm older doesn't mean we can't be friends.
It just means that we are different and follow different trends.
I was never out to hurt you, confuse you or make you have such doubt.
Just looking for some friendship, but if you say I will head out.
Into this cruel world I'll go hiding all my tears.
I'll cut myself to erase the thoughts brought on by my fears.
I thought I could fit in, in this dark world we all create.
I guess thats for the young, I'm old and can't relate.
I been through more rough times than most will ever see,
but experience has made me old and no one here needs me.
