WHEN
WHEN YOUTH KNOCKED AT MY DOOR
I WAS TRYING TO EVEN THE SCORE
WHEN ADULTHOOD MY INNER BEING SHOOK
I BURRIED MY NOSE IN A BOOK
NOW THAT MATURITY REARS IT'S HEAD
MY ATTENTION IS ELSEWHERE INSTEAD
WHEN DEATH DOES KNOCK
WILL THE DOOR I UNLOCK
I WAS TRYING TO EVEN THE SCORE
WHEN ADULTHOOD MY INNER BEING SHOOK
I BURRIED MY NOSE IN A BOOK
NOW THAT MATURITY REARS IT'S HEAD
MY ATTENTION IS ELSEWHERE INSTEAD
WHEN DEATH DOES KNOCK
WILL THE DOOR I UNLOCK
