Short-lived is a treasured youth – like a dream

Begin the woeful and ugly old age
Flying above our heads the ascendant scares

Short-lived is a treasured youth – like a dream

Muddling our minds and striking our eyes
As time goes by decaying our lives

Short-lived is a treasured youth – like a dream

Like a dream, we behold the shadows of our past
So distant… a dream that will no longer last
