And Time Goes by...

A few days ago I was a child
I had no troubles, no strife
Fun and games was the life
I got endless care
and not a moment dull

A few days ago I was growing up
Puberty and knowledge started to invade
Minor traumas, simple sadness
I only wanted my kind
Young and stupid, like they say

A few days ago I grew up
Troubles, worries, stress and hope
Clogging my scattered mind
My job and money was the life
No more silly, little games

A few days ago I grew old and grey
All that's left are memories
Outside it's raining
each drop was a tear I probably cried
Sitting in the silence; loud in my head

A few days ago... I went to sleep
To awaken in a never ending dream
All I was
Was a star in the universe
Hardly a difference without
