Where all tomorrows

And sold, sold as shrewd (as shrewd)
They've spent their legends and said youth
Where now is simply then

I don't know, know true
I just know, know of you (I just know)
Set on a latch and pretty-proofed
I hope you find your sun, sun to shine (to shine)
Where all, all that's mine (that's mine)
Is given up for something wise
So then is simply now

Stars should follow
Stars worth sorrow
Where all tomorrows
That bore brunt, borrowed time
Are mine
