[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]
