so many earthquakes
so many floods
still a panic when i see you
but i will not let the ages set
just a young girl
thirty-two
the struggle of empires
the murder and rages
no i will not let the ages squeeze
a young girl
thirty-two
and i remember the breeze
and the smell of the rains
as the conqueror's flags unfurled
but i always feared the motives of time
against a young girl
thirty-two
and now as destruction
and madness spreads
through the viral and vital and virile world
it's you
it's you
that stands in the way
of a dumb girl
thirty-two
and while all the prophets
have hidden in shame
i can no longer hide from you
the fears and the tears
of the passing of years
for the wrong girl
thirty-two
