Time ro Grow Up
December 17, 2011
We pretended we were angels
We pretended we could fly
We pretended we could save the world
and no one else would die
We pretended we were someone else
who we were wasn't good enough
So we disguised our hearts
from eachother
We pretended we would live forever
We pretended we would never come down
We pretended we could play in the clouds
and never go home
But we grew up and our childish
dreams were forgotten or swept
away by the rising storm
we couldn't pretend anymore
It was time to put away our wings
