remember well not all grow old
learn laughter to keep age at bay
or else learn to embrace that cold

forget all tales that you’ve been told
fear wanes away at close of day
remember well not all grow old

the terrified will always fold
they quit and hide their hopes away
or else learn to embrace that cold

you wish to prove your heart is gold
learn sacrifice and join the fray
remember well not all grow old

you’ll think your dreams have all been sold
if you stall and in one place stay
or else learn to embrace that cold

we all return to dust and mold
and lose ourselves into the grey
remember well not all grow old
or else learn to embrace that cold
