Growing Up

Rising, from the frozen earth
I’ve been waiting since my birth for you,
You and all you’d mean to me
Grown up, sprouted from the soil
I would work and I would toil for you,
You and all the light you bring
Stepped out, stepped into the light
And I was paralyzed by the sight of
All of your grand designs
It’s true, and you know it, too
You and I are through
And I can’t get it through my head
Falling, falling from the sky
I’d been hoping I could fly
But no, no it wasn’t meant to be
And it’s true, and you know it, too
You and I are through
And I can’t get it through my head
