Bridges for the Young

The day to day is tougher
I tend to fall behind in self regard
It's only nine past ten
And you can see the city reach for dark

Backlight spies on more than some
I'll retrace steps to where I'm wrong

Building islands for the young
Taking pictures in the sun
I am one

Roman busts and statues
Repurposed cassettes
Three more hours to daylight
Time is running thin for bets
Seems that I've dreaming
And forthwith cross the skies
Overdubs and recaps, platters multiply
The soundtrack to your worries
The force that's kept inside
Amidst the doubt and troubles
I'll see you there in five
