…tired.
The ones who are married are tired
of being married.
The ones who are single are tired
of being single.
They look at their wrinkles…
…
The ones who are single attribute their wrinkles
to being single.
The ones who are married attribute their wrinkles
to being married…
…
They have very few wrinkles.
Even taken together,
they have very few wrinkles.
But I cannot persuade them
to look at their wrinkles…

…[Verse 1]
Young man in a new place
New face lacking wrinkles but he got his boots laced
And immediately knows he's not like most…
…is magic
And how the sun renders it irrelevant is tragic
He sees the poetry in lone wolf drudgery
Trudging slowly, feet burn, knows he needs some company…
…He reaches out to those he deems worthy
Kind of cool with the fellas to the ladies he don't seem thirsty
But often times he's…

…on a fresh-pressed shirt
He stands alone, conforming on his own
He's thinking but he does not speak
He tries to fight the edges on his mind
But…
…she is what he truly seeks
But she is what he truly seeks
Hey, is anybody out there?
I'm reaching out
Hey, is anybody out…
The sweat is falling from his brow
He's near his prize, but she begins to fly
He knows that he must act…

…they all had faces too,
like me.
Now Hadrian's wall, will not return,
it's crumbled to the land of nowhere;
no one sees…
…on your crown, and your emeralds, and your rubies,
and you but on your crown.
Yeah, you put on your crown, and your emeralds…
…they all had faces too,
like me.
When the wrinkles in your wrist are yelling,
"It won't hurt a bit!"
but you know it will,
cause tears…

…to a drunken crowd
He can't afford the rent
A book of matches, a cigarette, and a forgotten art
Describes the job, yet his drinks come free…
…of charge
And with each gulp his blurred vision clears...
Putting depressions into lasting impressions
He sees everything and nothing all…
…peels away revealing scabs that fester and bleed
He can do nothing but provide the soundtrack to lifes more melancholy moments
He…

What I need is only my birthday eve
To see my heart and how many wrinkles wither it
And feel myself asleep
Then my breath…
…springs again
For all the smiles now gone
No one sees me like I am
But you now know how I think, damn
Now I know my placement, I'll…
…? For so long
What I need is only my birthday eve
To see my heart and how many wrinkles wither it
No one sees me like I am
But…

All of her friends are
Not really what friends are
Pop pilly and then head to the bar to get their head start
Looking…
…for love in the rubbing of genitals moving onto the next heart
She wasn't putting them down but none of them put her up when she fell hard…
Or sent her a get well card
Or said they see her arms are clean but in that soul there's self harm
The city never felt far
She can't…

…imagination sees a ghost of you
Wrinkles runnin' down my clothes
There's no one to impress, why try to look my best
Shaving has become…
…a chore
When most weeknights are nothing but a bore
So get outta my head, I'm sayin'
Get outta my mind
All this in vain when you are…
…trying to recall this life before I met you
Here with different company
But the only face I'm seeing is yours before me
So get outta…

…outside her thick leather skin
She always starts with a smile, it's small and butter yellow
But easier than a handshake, doesn't…
…like her hands touched
She tans alot, gets burnt alot, smoking through the cartons
But then gets put out so much, she's considered…
…that only she sees, holding the last bit of time that's borrowed
But you never know where that heart has been, and we'll never know how hard…

Nothing lasts forever.
Entropy lurks like a wolf in the pasture.
We cover his tracks with a coating of white wash.
But a new day…
…in the mirror. Do you see wrinkles there?
Time is the hunter and it sees through your mask.
Chorus
All flesh…
…is like the grass and it's beauty like a flower
We live, we die and like dust our bones are scattered
The face you see in the morning betrays you…

People watched me
Invited him to the town
The boys in back
Had eyes to baulk in town
Oh, lady of the evening
Oh, with her charm
The wrinkles…
…on his face
They say he meant no harm
Six guns on his side
All the fear he hides
In the street
Tough boy…
…the rules
Well, well, well...!
He's at it...
Never!
Breakin' all the rules
He's got no fear
With those six guns
In his head, he sees him…

For all the friends in different metropolitan towns
It's just another wrinkle in the cloud
[Chorus]
I's what you get
It's where you are
It's how we're built
What…
…a world
What a world
It's what you get
It's where you are
It's not a race
What a world
What a world
[Instrumental]
It's like…
…a whistle in the wind
It's like the end of everything
[Verse 2]
Who sees the thread in the veil
The government check got lost…

Gettin' out of the tub all drawn up like a raisin
Showed my fingers to my Daddy while he was shavin'
Said look at my toes Dad…
…what's wrong with my skin
Will this go away, will I be normal again
Well he picked me up and set me down on the hamper
Wiped off his…
…on the end of my chin, he said
Chorus
Those wrinkles ain't nothin' to be scared of
They're just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come…

…on the roof with his arm in a sling,
"A man's got the power, but a bird's got the wing"
it's a time warp puttin' wrinkles in your skin
it's…
…a blessing in disguise
like Vincent Van Gogh when he chopped off his ear,
"I'd like to give her twenty, but I still gotta hear"
like Crockett…
…at the wall lookin' back to Tennessee,
"the livin' costs you plenty, but the dyin's still for free"
it's a time warp puttin' wrinkles…

…for a month straight
The sky was looking like a dream and shit
My son would tell you but he's only two and he don't speak English yet
But…
…day in October, I'm getting wrinkles and my hair is getting grey cause I'm older
And another one
My friend Ryan and his wife are…
…wrinkles and my hair is getting grey cause I'm older
And another one
My friend Ryan and his wife are pregnant with a little girl and man, I cannot wait 'til I hold her
Congratulations, and another one…
