Definitely a Liar...

...but unsure as to how thieving fits into the picture.

Nine days and I will be thirty-two years old.
That'll make eight years past doomsday, so I'm doing awfully well.

So it's not loaded stadiums or ball parks,
and we're not kids on swing-sets on the blacktop
and I thought at fifteen that I'd have it down by sixteen
and twenty four keeps breathing in my face like a mad whore.
and twenty four keeps pounding at my door.

Like a friend, you don't want to see
Oldness comes with a smile...
Oldness comes to youth who dream suicide.

This used to resonate so deep within me.
I think we've all have had deadlines for living.
I'm finally realizing that it's never about next, but now.
