Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Intro (x2)
---> Play Intro over:
   Here I sit in idle envy
   T.V. shows still holds me in
   Thin steel creases my ???
   Begging till the end
---> Play Chorus A over:
   And then it hits me
   And then I see, then I see
   Today my love, we shall let the world slide
   For we will never be younger again
---> Play Riff 1
---> Play Riff 2 over:
   Well, I'm tired of the waste and the stupid excuses
   Sitting on my ass makes me feel useless
   Earth accelerate, Hurry up and turn straight
   I'm starting to burn
---> Play Riff 1
---> Play Riff 2 over:
   Well I get kinda mad like a cornered crawdad
   It's time to throw down, too bad so sad
   Don't step to me, when things don't go as you planned
   No, I don't give a ***
---> Play Chorus B over:
   And then it hits me
   And then I see, I see
   Today my love, we shall let the world slide
   We'll never be younger again
---> Play Intro
---> Play Intro over:
   It's easier to hurt than heal
   Hypocrites they make me ill
   Young men yearn to turn the tables
   That too is a sin
---> Play Chorus A over:
   And then it hits me
   And then I see, then I see
   Today my love, we shall let the world slide
   We'll never be younger again
---> Play Riff 1
---> Play Riff 2 over:
   We all look to the end of a certain social stress
   I'm down for that day but don't forget the progress
   Awakening up, compassion, understanding
   Here's to the youth who aren't afraid to put a hand in
---> Play Chorus B over:
   And then it hits me
   and then I see, I see
   Today my love, we shall let the world slide
   Away, we'll never fade
---> Play Riff 2 (x2)
---> End on E5 (022xxx)
