Because we are afraid of what the dark might bring.
I know, I know its just a childish fear,
That grows and grows wild in the middle of me.
I'm gonna get a new tatoo,
black and stretching around my arm.
Like a life that is visible and real.
I know, I know its stupid and immature,
I just wanna get shaped to the face that twists inside,
both you and me.
Breathing fire doesn't look good on a resume,
Neither does anything lese we do,
Gotta get ready for the real world.
Yeh, Yeh we gotta grow up.
You know I like to die for awhile,
Everyday in the afternoon.
I like to like the arms of a bar wrap around me tight.
Im just gonna sprawl in the frontbooth,
Big drink above my head,
Cross eyed and smiling,
As I watch the world go twisting by.
I don't wanna die with you,
Or live in the same dark room.
I don't wanna see your bloodshot eyes,
No more, no more.
I just wanna take this girl,
all curls and big brown eyes.
Man I can't take the pain of wating her, needing her.
I know the secret of your soul,
And I just don't wanna know.
Yeh. man we gotta grow up.
