Young Grow Old Lyrics

He says, “Fall into pieces” Fighting the boy and the man Over his shoulder there was freedom But consciousness has tied his hands
Embodied youth was his distinction Now inhibition's in demand So driven by his fear of weakness But that's his key to understand, no
So far in a distant land There's a fight between boy and man See the light through the open door Sit and watch as the young grow old
Trading places in the circle Turn the glass, spill the sand They say that time can make a difference But age doesn't make you a man
So far in a distant land There's a fight between boy and man See the light through the open door Sit and watch as the young grow old
So young but overblown So young but overblown So young but overblown So young but overblown
Take a look now, see the boy is weakened Watch him fade, watch him fade away Take a bow and the boy is defeated Is this the way, this the way?
So far in a distant land There's a fight between boy and man See the light through the open door Sit and watch as the young grow old
