Walk Fast, Look Worried - Magellan

Fear in a young one with innocence

A crisis I must resolve to handle with

Competence

He wants to know if he will be «taken» too

He worried — he asked me point blank

«Will I ever be as old as you?»

He just afraid at a young age

Don’t want to leave you at a young age

Son I am sorry that things are not always

The way they appear

And don’t you think about it anymore today

We’ve got plenty of time-so just for now

Please-

Keep me in sight — do as I say son

Please remember I can’t always be there

So walk fast, look worried

How did he think of such a question?

I’m sorry I have to be the one

That changes his perception

Wish we could keep things just like

We had before — an illusion

The point is our survival is the only thing

We’re living for

I’m just afraid at a young age

Want to say the right words at a young age…

Son I am sorry that things are not always

The way they appear

And don’t you think about it anymore today

We’ve got plenty of time-so just for now

Please-

Keep me in sight — Do as I say son

Please remember I can’t always be there

So walk fast, look worried (x2)

Walk fast, look worried…(x4)

Sorry son, but I’ve just begun

Don’t mean to break up all the fun

Walk fast, look worried

So disengage while your at the age

That you really don’t care

Walk a line, keep it true

'cause there’s more to life than I’ve told you

They’ll take your money — take your pride

Gonna sell you on the dark side…

Walk fast, look worried
