Evolution - Josh Woodward
I remember the snow
From times so long ago
All stacked in piles
that went up for miles in the air
I'd climb right up to the top
The tallest kid on the block
Did the piles get smaller
did I get taller
Did everything just shrink away
I can't remember the change
But everything has rearranged
Every day There's something that goes away
It's leaking like a faucet
I never knew I lost it
Until I wake up old and grey
And every day I wake up
and see my face The reflection is familiar
Just dustier and blurrier
Till suddenly a stranger shakes my hand
The one-way arrow of time
You can choose to ignore the sign
But you don't get to do the driving
or know when you're arriving there
The seconds minutes and days
They pass with a gentle pace
But suddenly stack up
Watchin' as we rack up
The changes that we never see
But we are never the same
Don't blink your eyes or you might miss it
Every day There's something that goes away
It's leaking like a faucet
I never knew I lost it
Until I wake up old and grey
And every day I wake up
and see my face The reflection is familiar
Just dustier and blurrier
Till suddenly a stranger shakes my hand
You can't chase the breeze cuz
you're never gonna catch it
Can't stop the seas
when the waves come crashing
Can't hold your dreams
when the sunlight fills the room
When you're asleep when you're awake
The sum of every breath you take
Invisible but slowly multiplied
Every day There's something that goes away
It's leaking like a faucet
I never knew I lost it
Until I wake up old and grey
And every day I wake up
and see my face The reflection is familiar
Just dustier and blurrier
Till suddenly a stranger shakes my hand
