And in a moment it all came to this |
|
The time it took for your muscles to grow and grip |
|
Of all the things I've heard |
|
Why'd it have to be these words? |
|
And in a second I'll be gone and you won't have to think |
|
I got enough to keep me going, keep me from the brink |
|
As your bones grew |
|
Why did you become you? |
|
Become you? |
|
Oh, I've told you, oh, to be older |
|
You know I'm right |
|
I'm right |
|
You know these moments, they take years to pass |
|
You gotta be coping, gotta be hoping the hands fly by fast |
|
You call this true |
|
Why did you become you? |
|
Become you? |
|
See the sun rise now, this has to end |
|
Don't let it be the one to walk us home again |
|
And you know you haven't got all the answers |
|
If you did you would be screaming them out |
|
And I know I haven't got all the answers, |
|
If I did I would be screaming them out, screaming them out |
|
And in a moment it all came to this |
|
The greatest book you ever read came from my favorites list |
|
Of all the things to lose, |
|
it's you I choose. |
|
Oh, I told you, oh, to be older, |
|
You know I'm right |
|
I'm right |
|
Keep breathing, keep breathing |
