Half A Century High

In the tube where i was born
I could have sworn
There was so much to see
There was so little left to be
But i was free

The world at my command
Through the doubts i ran
Looking for a man
That looked like me

And now it can be told
I'm a quarter a century old
But i'm a half a century high

In the tube where i was grown
I was alone
The figure on the floor
The dream behing the door
The sound was low

Ball game on the street
Disappeared behing my feet
Out of breath my heart would beat
To see a show

And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But i'm half a century high

In the tube where i was killed
I was fulfilled
The lines of light would bend
I'd stare until the end
And then again

Fascinated by the fad
I gave all the mind i had
And whenever i was sad
I had my friends

And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century of old
But i'm a half a century high
