Child / Adult
Why can't I go? Put down the telephone
Slow dance, real slow, heart of stone and heart of gold
I'll ask my mom and dad, they'll know where the tallest oak trees grow
Why can't I go follow footprints in the snow?
Why can't I stay? Two hours of video games
My thoughts cascade when I'm alone and I'm ashamed
I dreamt about a bird, we play, flying high above the glade
Why can't I stay present in the present day?
Why can't I find validity and peace of mind?
Tape deck, rewind, half-speed I'm left behind
I dream I'll be adored for my lines
I'm only living for their cries
Replay forty-four and I crave
A crowd that's calling out my name
Why can't I find the perfect place for me to hide?
My God, give me open eyes with which to see
Hard stone, barely see signs of shimmering
Soft gold stuck in between
Slow dance, real slow, heart of stone and heart of gold
I'll ask my mom and dad, they'll know where the tallest oak trees grow
Why can't I go follow footprints in the snow?
Why can't I stay? Two hours of video games
My thoughts cascade when I'm alone and I'm ashamed
I dreamt about a bird, we play, flying high above the glade
Why can't I stay present in the present day?
Why can't I find validity and peace of mind?
Tape deck, rewind, half-speed I'm left behind
I dream I'll be adored for my lines
I'm only living for their cries
Replay forty-four and I crave
A crowd that's calling out my name
Why can't I find the perfect place for me to hide?
My God, give me open eyes with which to see
Hard stone, barely see signs of shimmering
Soft gold stuck in between
