Couldn't be more different
Than anything
I had seen
From where I stood

Instinct to turn and run
Straight away
But for to stay
A while I came

How can I be so young and feel so old
How can I be so warm and feel so cold
How can I see so well how I am so blind
How can I breathe it all in and leave it all behind

Compelled to be quiet
Soak it in
Know again
I'm nothing more

To understand how it is
They love and feel
Just as real
As I always have

How can I be so young and feel so old
How can I be so warm and feel so cold
How can I see so well how I am so blind
How can I breathe it all in and leave it all behind

East
East
East
East

So it is good to say
That I am
Clearer than
I was before

How can I be so young and feel so old
How can I be so warm and feel so cold

How can I be so young and feel so old
How can I be so warm and feel so cold

How can I see so well how I am so blind
How can I breathe it all in and leave it all behind
How can I breathe it all in and leave it all behind
