The Kid
Damn, we've gone pretty damn far wouldn't you say?
Ever since we got loose from the chain
Running free doesn't guarantee
We're getting close to something solid, anyway
Wait! Here's a safe house
Please, can we stay?
Don't you ever feel a little bit estranged
When you look into your window
But you can't find a familiar face?
Slow, please don't forget where you came from
Brought up by the spitting image of your heart and visage
Who gave everything to pave the way for your maiden voyage
And no, this ain't carefully plotted out on pages
You gotta be a little bit crazy if you wanna go out and face this
The world hits like bricks, but you roll with the hits
Then you have a couple drinks and just laugh
The kid is a bonafide trooper
He's a live and living superhero
Fighting his fight
And running by fear because he knows what it's like
The kid is an incandescent song of what it's like to be set free
Because you gotta start really living
Not just making a living
Right, but this madhouse is hard to just shake
It's gonna take more than a commonplace quake
To keep all of these new days from burying my youth days
Go, why not just push full speed ahead?
Maybe it'll stand me in good stead
To take over my own world so I can say I made it in my head
Slow, please don't forget where you came from
The comfort of loving arms and broken hearts
That tested your boundaries and built you your sanctuary
And no, this ain't carefully plotted out on pages
You gotta start swimming in the deep end
Walking without weakness
The world's got your back, so keep your eyes forward
And don't you dare forget to laugh
The kid is a bonafide trooper
He's a live and living superhero
Fighting his fight
And running by fear because he knows what it's like
The kid is an incandescent song of what it's like to be set free
Because you gotta start really living
Not just making a living
When you gonna start really living?
When you gonna start really living?
How about you start right now
What time could be better?
You've gotta be a little bit crazy if you wanna go out and face this
The world's got your back, so keep your eyes forward
And don't you ever forget to laugh
The kid is a bonafide trooper
He's a live and living superhero
Fighting his fight
And running by fear because he knows what it's like
The kid is an incandescent song of what it's like to be set free
Because you gotta start really living
Not just making a living
Oh, when are you gonna let yourself be free?
Ever since we got loose from the chain
Running free doesn't guarantee
We're getting close to something solid, anyway
Wait! Here's a safe house
Please, can we stay?
Don't you ever feel a little bit estranged
When you look into your window
But you can't find a familiar face?
Slow, please don't forget where you came from
Brought up by the spitting image of your heart and visage
Who gave everything to pave the way for your maiden voyage
And no, this ain't carefully plotted out on pages
