Lyrics

COMING OF AGE

Coming of age, I should know
Better this time round, to let go
Days just run their course anyway
Time healing all wounds in the end
Still I drive a little faster
Trying to leave behind the thought of your last words

Underneath my drowsy brown eyes
The implacable awareness of my life
Soon, I can forget all the hurt
Absolved in my concoction of herbs
Hey Doc, these pills you gave me
They?re not working, they just make me more wary

I?m so alone
I?m so lost
So alone
And so lost

Coming of age, I have learnt
Why I always chose the driest path on earth
They told me once you knew, you broke free
So tell me why now I?m still feeling like this
Is there really no way out here?
Busy raising my own hell, nothing stops me

I?m so alone
I?m so lost
So alone
And so lost

I?m so alone
I?m so lost
So alone
And so lost
