Need To Be (20180307.3b)
Picture a house with no mirrors,
where you never need to see

There’s no such thing is getting old
age is only how long
you think you are in time
There’s no such thing as living alone
bonds are just as strong
you know we are in time

you build so no one can see you
and you can’t see out at all
There’s no such thing as giving up
life is just as long as
you don’t think in time
