Slow This Thing Down

Someone just told me it was Monday, where did the weekend go?
Last I remember it was Friday, so I would like to know,
For Saturday and Sunday, really flew by awfully fast,
But you know all of the good days, don’t ever seem to last,
And really as I have gotten older, time has accelerated,
I guess I just realized being younger, is not overrated,
As a young boy I wondered, why is this day so long?
Now I don’t have time to tell the difference, between what’s right and wrong,
I just hope my eyesight holds out long enough, so that I might see,
This living that is speeding by, without regard for me,
Lord I surely didn’t know when I entered this world, what all was at stake,
But I know if life was an automobile, I would be looking for the brake.
