GROWING UP
Their were times when a tonne of bricks could hit me but I'd still be standing tall
Now a gust of wind could hit me and I'd stumble and I'd fall
The words you used to say would reflect right off my heart
Now the same words today could rip my world apart
I used to enjoy the calmness of the sky when the clouds split
Now the sky just seems to be another shade of shit
The world has lost everything I used to enjoy
Or is it coz it's no longer through the eyes of a boy?
I never knew growing up would involve so much pain
They never told me I'd grow up to be insane
They never told me it would be like this
The older you get, the less you exist
I wish I could be a child again
There are no better days than back then
When tears were only caused by physical pain
And half the world was still unexplained
Even now I don't know the world inside out, but it feels like I know too much
My childhood mind has lost its touch
And I try to forget the one thing I learnt from the tears in my eye
Don't grow up because life is just a lie
