Young Grow Old by Creed

He said he's falling to pieces 

Fighting the boy and the man 

Over his shoulder there was freedom 

But consciousness has tied his hands 

Embodied youth was his distinction 

Now inhibition's in demand 

So driven by his fear of weakness 

That's his key to understand 

So far in a distant land 

There's a fight between boy and man 

See the light through the open door 

Sit and watch as the young grow old 

Trading places in the circle 

Turn the glass, spill the sand 

They say that time can make the difference 

But age doesn't make you a man 

So far in a distant land 

There's a fight between boy and man 

See the light through the open door 

Sit and watch as the young grow old 

So young but overblown 

So young but overblown 

So young but overblown 

Take a look now, see the boy is weakened 

Watch him fade, watch him fade away 

Take a bow and the boy is defeated 

Is this the way, this the way? 

So far in a distant land 

There's a fight between boy and man 

See the light through the open door 

Sit and watch as the young grow old
