Father
Its not� to make a change,
Just , take it .
Youre still young, thats your fault,
Theres so much you have to know.
Find a , settle down,
If you want you can .
Look at me, I am old, but Im .

I was once like you are , and I know that its not ,
To be calm when youve found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything youve got.
For you will still be here , but your may not.

Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
Its always been the same, same old .
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now theres a way and I know that I have to go away.
