Grown

I have to hand it to you
You sure know how to make an exit
You know you were a good friend
The best I ever had

Now I've got to go
Manufacture some feelings
Stuck in the road
A child had me waving

And the sand hissing by me
To the sea
I remember walking through
The old part of town

Inside jokes
And tuning to the dial tone
So aimless but dreaming in notes
I thought we were grown
But merely found
Another way to be young

And will you look upon us
And freeze frame every scene
And find the fractures in our lives
And rewind till absurdity
Now you're in the bark of a tree

With the metal and the rubber
Mangled together
And the sand hissing by me
To the sea

I remember walking through
The old town
Inside jokes
And tuning to the dial tone
So aimless but dreaming in notes
Thought we were grown
But merely found
Another way to be young
Merely found
Another way to be young

Only may be lonely
But it's free
With the solace and the boredom
And long goodbyes
