We lean towards the earlier hours

 Hours of simplicity

 We shun away from all which devours 

 Devours precious memories

 

 For all I know, our past must show

 

 All our worries once were temporary 

 The need for expression, with all else secondary

 Our knowledge equals guess

 When we’re content with less

 All our worries forever temporary 

 

 I know this one will slim down my chances

 And so I’ll have it be

 I’ll step in front of the chariots of progress

 And let the weight revive me

 

 For all I know, our past must show

 

 All our worries once were temporary 

 The need for expression, with all else secondary

 Our knowledge equals guess

 When we’re content with less

 All our worries forever temporary 

 

 All our worries once were temporary 

 The need for expression, with all else secondary

 Our knowledge equals guess

 When we’re content with less

 

 All our worries once were temporary 

 The need for expression, makes all else secondary

 All knowledge equals guess

 We were content with less
