Spectacle Growing Pains
I’ve been sick and silenced
Forgot I had a heart at all
I know I know I should have known
But it’s hard to remember when life is such a short
time
But it’s hard to remember when time is a long time
And I was told that I would never die or grow old
Or at least that was what they sold me
Weeds are growing in my playground, haven’t been there
for a long time
And if we are born to fail then just slit your throat
Life has to be more than this, at least I hope for more
And if we are born to fail what’s the point of living
at all?
Weeds are growing in my playground, haven’t been there
for a long time
And if we are born to fail then just slit your throat
And it’s hard to remember when life is such a long time
And a long long long time it went exactly as I planned
And a long long long time it went exactly as I planned
And a long long long time ago it went exactly as I
planned
Back then we had no plans, we had no worries
We had no home, nor a resting place
They say you can’t be a child for ever and ever
But I beg to differ, but I beg to differ
Why would I ever trade my skateboard for your working
life?
For your working knife stealing very trace of life
We once slept under open skies, told stories in the
wind
Our sleeping bags are now just a vast memory
