Coming of Age

[Part 1]

[Verse 1]
You could not know
Could not know
You would not know
Would not know
About all that we'd become
About all that we’d become

[Verse 2]
You should not know
Should not know
You should not know
Should not know
About all that we'd become
About all that we'd become

[Outro]
Too old to run
Too old to run
Too old to run
Too old to run

[Part 2]

[Verse]
And as all collapsed and all fell apart
The walls and the chambers within your brittle little heart
In ruin and shatter all innocence be gone
And conscience became just one more thing to blame
And as your growth plates fell broke
Right in half as you spoke
Of awareness and love
For the lights in the dawn
And the lingering stars
Of the fading years you hoped to spend
Drawing laughter on faces of people you’d met
But the world that's now waiting for you and your peers
Brings a change in perception and turns laughter to fear
Dull you are left behind walls higher than
The fear building up in every cell as you ran

[Outro]
From everything old dusty rusty gray
And everything that will take away today
As you are coming of age
In times like these
As you are coming of age
Somewhere in the west
