We still need a warrior for dreams Keep the monsters in the closet keep the thread inside the seams. And we still need a saint for all our sins. Keep our ribcage around our lungs, so our hearts can't let us and and When our hearts begin to feel cold, we'll just crease around the edges into patterns we can fold Just to keep from feeling like we're old We have gotten so old
Eventually our heart can't seem to bear all the folding and the molding and the wear and the tear. And it starts to rip as we start to die. And there's nothing we can do but admit that we're scared of changing And somethings just are better not to keep inside.
A thousand paper cranes, is that all it would take to wish to change everything, back to the way it was before. My friends have grown and gone, they think that they're adults but they know they're wrong. They're not that strong.
So could it be the rings inside my soul and the lives that I have lived and the stories I have told Or could it be the nectar in my veins that can help me understand everything in my brain, I said The same things that I can't explain are the same things that keep me insane, because I can't bear the weight on my own.
"But Jack, you know the pain of something that can never be explained is the same pain that makes a person grow."
But times are moving fast, how come my thoughts are stuck inside the past every time that I wake up feeling new
I say, My friends I know it's true I wouldn't be the same if it weren't for you And can I try to change again To grow up into something greater than.
