Carbon/Silicon – Grow Up lyrics

It starts with the child
Who spoke out of turn
Whose eyes were too bright
Whose heart was to burn
And all of the heat
Of so much to prove
And all of the pain
In the Mountain
That he needed to move

Your journey will be hard
Like an Indigo Child
Finding your way out in the wild
And all the while waiting
For life to interrupt
Some boys just never grow up

The curse of the gift
Can sometimes be cruel
The path that you choose
Confused with a fool
Wire in the brain
And there isn't a choice
Driven by details
And persistance
Of some inner voice

Your journey will be hard
Like an Indigo Child
Finding your way out in the wild
And all the while waiting
For life to interrupt
Some boys just never grow up

Like the madman who played
But then his tuning was wrong
And the boy who jumped back
Because the light was too strong
Who raged at the moon
'Cause the nights were too long
But left me some hope
In the words of a song

Then the Ghost asked
"D'you see it as strange
That all this went on
And you never changed?"
And though the Kid said
"Time changes, not me"
The west grew old and there
Was something there
That he'd never see

Your journey will be hard
Like an Indigo Child
Finding your way out in the wild
And all the while
Waiting for life to interrupt
Some boys just never grow up

When all of the parties
Have partied away
Eternal spring wakes
To a cold winter's day
With great expectations
Relying on fate
Fate holds out a hand
You must take it
Before it's too late

Journey will be hard
Like an Indigo Child
Finding your way out in the wild
And all the while waiting
For life to interrupt
Some boys just never grow up

So don't be furious
Don't be aggrieved
Believe in the things
That we always believed
Try to be cool
Walk out there with me
Then we will always be
Then we will always be
Free

Your journey will be hard
Like an Indigo Child
Finding your way out in the wild
And all the while waiting
For life to interrupt
Some boys just never grow up
Some boys just never grow up
