Everybody’s Growing Up

Descending down through the streets
the sky pale and forgotten,
horses falling over,
the morning sun is fading.

Everybody’s growing up.
Everybody’s growing old.
Everybody’s growing up.
Everybody’s growing cold.
Everybody’s being told.
Everybody’s drooling out the side of their mouth.

How long can a heart last
when everything arounds decaying?
I smiled and loved as a child
but now my love is aging.

Everybody’s growing up.
Everybody’s getting angry.
Everybody’s trying not to go crazy.
Everybody’s getting mad.
Everybody’s getting fat and lazy.
Everybody’s in fear, settling for a pointless, mediocre life.

We are born into a world
where everyone is crazy.
I offer my love to you
with the hopes that it will save me.

Everybody’s getting stuck.
Everybody’s blaming love.
Everybody’s making up diseases.
Everybody kind of sucks.
Everybody burns the clutch.
Everybody’s forgotten they are creating their own reality.

Eventually you gotta open up your heart,
you gotta open up your heart,
you gotta open up your heart
or you’ll go crazy

Eventually you gotta open up your heart,
you gotta open up your heart,
you gotta open up your heart,
you gotta let it all hang out.
