Initially I thought it was about turning middle age, but it's more. "You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan And the next five years trying to be with your friends again" "And if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up And I still don't wanna stagger home Then it's the memory of our betters That are keeping us on our feet" "I wouldn't trade one stupid decision For another five years of life" (Love that line!) It's also about being happy with who you are, being happy in the here and now, not longing for days past or pining for the future. Your life is here now, live it. |

I see a lot of post saying it's about hitting adulthood. I thought it was about hitting middle age, guess I hear it differently because I'm middle aged. Interesting how the same words appear through different eyes. It's kinda what make these such great lyrics. I wonder if we are both right? Any senior citizens out there care to weigh in? ;?) Don |
