Creed - Yong Grow Old Lyrics
He said he's falling to piecesFighting the boy and the manOver his shoulder there was freedomBut consciousness has tied his handsEmbodied youth was his distinctionNow inhibition's in demandSo driven by his fear of weaknessThat's his key to understandSo far in a distant landThere's a fight between boy and manSee the light through the open doorSit and watch as the young grow oldTrading places in the circleTurn the glass, spill the sandThey say that time can make the differenceBut age doesn't make you a manSo far in a distant landThere's a fight between boy and manSee the light through the open doorSit and watch as the young grow oldSo young but overblownSo young but overblownSo young but overblownTake a look now, see the boy is weakenedWatch him fade, watch him fade awayTake a bow and the boy is defeatedIs this the way, this the way?So far in a distant landThere's a fight between boy and manSee the light through the open doorSit and watch as the young grow old
