There must something more that I can see
As I live upon this Earth
Not too much more that I can be
To feel as though I have some worth

The hands that govern a law abides
To come crushing down on me
Keeping thier words but then besides
Binding my soul from coming free

Living life was so much more easy then
'Fore we had all of these things
I could preach to you the times of when
Not even Angels needed wings

Now I feel as though my time is short
And life isn't quite as sweet
While I never was the happy sort
I'm smiling at my final feat

I am so much more rightnow today
Than I felt I ever could
So triuphant in my every way
But then again I knew I would

Bob I get longing tinged with slight regret here.

Well put

Yeah, but mostly it goes over the fears of growing up...a childs life is a magical time of discovery and curiosity, and the grown life is full of resposibility guess work and fear, longing and regret  , well put yourself, Jon.
