"bon voyage" was something that i once said
                    
and eventually regretted.
                                           
well, it’s come up again...and i wonder if
                       
the same mistakes i used to make
         
could be remade.
                                             
cause "i've been through this before" well i've said that too.
           
there's just so much that we can fake
                                          
before we break ourselves into-two.

                                      
twenty two. the years can hardly catch up
                                  
with the years of playing catch up.
                                  
must there always be a catch?
                             
what we really want is just ahead,
      
just over that hill.
                                               
and the more i learn, the less i try to climb.
       
the more we change, the more we wish
                                                          
we stayed the same the more we try to fake ourselves into beliefs:
       
"the grass must be green somewhere!"

    
     

                                           
twenty two-the years can hardly catch up,
                            
the years are playing catch up.
                                
must there always be a catch?
