I'm Only Good at Being Young.

"Stop This Train" by John Mayer is my favorite song of all time. Its lyrics really resonate with me.

:: no, i'm not colorblind
i know the world is black and white
try to keep an open mind
but i just can't sleep tonight

stop this train
i wanna get off and go home again
i can't take the speed it's movin in
i know i can't
but honestly, won't someone stop this train?

don't know how else to say it
don't want to see my parents go
one generation's length away
from fighting life out on my own

stop this train
i wanna get off and go home again
i can't take the speed it's movin in
i know it can't
but honestly, won't someone stop this train?

so scared of getting older
i'm only good at being young
so i play the numbers game
to find a way to say that life has just begun

had a talk with my old man
said, help me understand
he said, turn 68
you'll renegotiate

don't stop this train
don't for a minute change the place you're in
and don't think i couldn't ever understand
i tried my hand
john, honestly, we'll never stop this train

once in awhile, when it's good
it'll feel like it should
and they're all still around
and you're still safe and sound
and you don't miss a thing
til you cry when you're driving away in the dark
singing

stop this train
i wanna get off and go home again
i can't take the speed it's movin in
i know i can
cause now i see i'll never stop this train ::
