LYRIC

In happier days
I can’t remember when
But happier days
Than those we’re living in
You could enjoy the delusion 
Progress would bless our lives

Now here we are
Bitten by the bytes
And all of this awfulness thrives
 
A man of my years' seen things
He knows what tomorrow brings
Is another today
To piddle away
And though disillusion stings
A man of my years still sings his heart out

My last birthday wish
I asked to be ignored
But granting me this
The world could not afford
It had to be firing off rockets
Singing a children’s song off key
You see
A man of my years is done
Pretending he’s having fun 
If he feels it he laughs
If not he asks
Would it bother anyone 
If a man of my years should run and hide
While a shred of pride remains 

A slice of cake I’ll handle
Please don’t light that candle
My age in the icing
Is that meant to be a nice thing?
You tell me to blow now
But I will not
I have got to go now

I promise you this
I’ll make no promises
You’ll say I just did
But that’s not what this is
I’m merely aware of my standing
I’ve got to get off my feet

There’s kids on the lawn
I could shout at them
Instead I just yawn and repeat

A man of my years sits back
with a cold drink and salty snack
His work is long done
He’s had enough fun
Now he wants to relax
After laughter and tears
All the hurrahs and jeers
I’m a man of my years!

Take Me Higher

Story to accompany this piece:

In the soft hues of dawn and the tender glow of dusk, there was a place where every heart’s whisper was heard. It was a sanctuary where the air itself seemed to listen, a haven for the fragile stirrings of the soul.

Here, in this gentle embrace, a story unfolded. It was about a moment shared between two strangers, their lives brushing like the wings of butterflies. They spoke not of grand tales but of small joys and sorrows, the kind that form our everyday life.

As they parted, they carried with them a warmth that only comes from knowing someone else has truly listened. It was a simple, human connection, a delicate thread spun from understanding.

Tarina teokselle:

Aamunkoiton pehmeissä sävyissä ja illan hellässä hehkussa oli paikka, jossa jokaisen sydämen kuiskaus kuultiin. Se oli suojapaikka, jossa itse tuuli tuntui kuuntelevan, turvapaikka sielulle.

Tässä lempeässä lämmön ja valon syleilyssä kehkeytyi ainutlaatuinen hetki, jonka kaksi vierasta jakoivat, heidän elämänsä hipaisten toisiaan kuin perhosten siivet. He eivät puhuneet suurista tarinoista, vaan pienistä iloista ja suruista, sellaisista jotka muodostavat jokapäiväisen arkemme.

Heidän lähtiessään kukin omiin suuntiinsa, omiin elämiinsä, he pitivät sydämessään mukanaan lämmön, joka syntyy vain siitä, että tietää jonkun todella kuunnelleen. Se oli yksinkertainen, inhimillinen yhteys, herkkä yhteys, joka oli luotu ymmärryksestä.
