Creed - Young Grow Old lyrics

He said he's falling to pieces<br />

Fighting the boy and the man<br />

Over his shoulder there was freedom<br />

But consciousness has tied his hands<br />

Embodied youth was his distinction<br />

Now inhibition's in demand<br />

So driven by his fear of weakness<br />

That's his key to understand<br />

So far in a distant land<br />

There's a fight between boy and man<br />

See the light through the open door<br />

Sit and watch as the young grow old<br />

Trading places in the circle<br />

Turn the glass, spill the sand<br />

They say that time can make the difference<br />

But age doesn't make you a man<br />

So far in a distant land<br />

There's a fight between boy and man<br />

See the light through the open door<br />

Sit and watch as the young grow old<br />

So young but overblown<br />

So young but overblown<br />

So young but overblown<br />

Take a look now, see the boy is weakened<br />

Watch him fade, watch him fade away<br />

Take a bow and the boy is defeated<br />

Is this the way, this the way?<br />

So far in a distant land<br />

There's a fight between boy and man<br />

See the light through the open door<br />

Sit and watch as the young grow old
