As I keep growing old

I can see the value of the words

That they once sang to me

But only now

It doesn't seem that the lyrics mean that much to them anymore

Is there anyway I could ever have known



[chorus]

I know it's foolish to worship what my heroes say

Then I'm a fool 

I only have myself to blame

I feel so stupid about all the time I spent

Trying to figure out exactley what they meant



I understand they can't spend their whole lives 

Rehashing old feelings from ten years ago

Not valid anymore

But to me those lyrics add meaning to my little life

I think that I'm an overemotional bore
