Yo La Tengo - The point of it

When you’re screaming in my head
What’s the point of it?
When you’re sure no one will here
Or nothing you’ll remain

Say that we’re afraid
Say that we would run
Maybe that's okay
If we’re not so strong
That’s the point of it

When you choose to hide your eyes
Take me out of here
Find the comfort in my life
Before it disappears

Say that we’re afraid
Say that we’re not the ones
Maybe that’s okay
If we’re not so young
That’s the point of it

When I‘m standing next to you
That’s the point of it
When you still run by us too
That’s the point of it

Say that we’re afraid
Say the night is close
Honey, that’s okay
If we’re getting old
If we’re not so strong
If our story’s told
That’s the point of being born
