Experience Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Once I was a boy, an innocent to life and my role in it,
This world played my game, and anyone a clown or foil for myself.The harmless affairs, and no-one seemed to care for any meaning
My life was my own, The debt I paid, I paid it only to myself.The unseeing youth, how can it be so shallow and short-sighted
These years passed me by, to realise the folly of these unripe years.Now I am a man, I realise
My unworldly sins pained many lives
Yet I heard, heard with ears that wouldn't listen
And still I watched and I saw with blinkered eyes.But with age the conscience slowly dawns
and bonds of duty gently tied
All my sins, seen through now there is experience
and recollecting act in virgin guise.Master inner voices, making any choices.Once I could rebel and consequences then had no reflection

And I am a man, And I am bound by adult age discretion
now.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Gentle Giant were a British progressive rock band founded in London, United Kingdom active between 1970 and 1980. The band was known for the complexity and sophistication of its music and for the varied musical skills of its members. All of the band members, except the first two drummers, were multi-instrumentalists. Although not commercially successful, they did achieve a cult following. The band's onetime stated aim was to "expand the frontiers of contemporary popular music at the risk of becoming very unpopular," although this stance was to alter significantly with time.
