Lyrics

The clouds in the sky told me stories
Of lions and tigers and bears chasing fairies
Used to spend hours like that
But i’ve forgotten how
The cracks in the pavement were dangerous
You could break your mama’s back, so I used to skip them
It was all magic and wishes
But that’s over now
‘Cause growing up
Means looking down
Leaving questions on the ground like
Why’s the moon chasing me endlessly?
Looking out from the back of an Odyssey
Why’s the sky so blue?
Will I be old at twenty-two?
When did gaining some common-sense
Turn into losing my innocence
And finding out that bees
Aren’t the only things that sting
The leaves taught me changing of seasons
But the wind at my back felt like cold weather treason
The grey and the quiet
Could swallow me whole
The snow covered me like a blanket
But it couldn’t keep me warm when they lowered the casket
The day I learned angels
Were more than just child’s play
‘Cause growing up
Means looking down
And leaving questions on the ground like
Why’s the moon chasing me endlessly?
Looking out from the back of an Odyssey
Why’s the sky so blue?
Will I be old at twenty-two?
When did gaining some common-sense
Turn into losing my innocence
And finding out that bees
Aren’t the only things that
Sting right to the heart of me
Harden reality
Watching the years go by
Chasing down memories
Front seat philosophies
Leaving me wondering why
Why’s the moon chasing me endlessly?
Looking out from the back of an Odyssey
Why’s the sky so blue?
Will I be old at twenty-two?
Why’s my heart always the first to break?
You’d think I’d learn from all my mistakes
And finding out that bees
Aren’t the only things that sting
And finding out that bees
Aren’t the only things that sting
