Lyrics
Time stands still when you’re always underage So we learned to fake it like actors on a stage Everyone we knew told us just what to do and how to feel about it All our illusions fell. We knew them so well until we learned to doubt all of it All the children know if you jump you fall. And if you jump too high, you fall harder than before All the children say, “Why’d you let me down? Tell me, when you going to come around? I can’t live my life underground. Tell me, when you going to come around?” Calling, mama Calling, mama Calling, mama Blue lights and shadows, we grew up way too fast They stole our future. But they can’t steal our past Everyone knows that’s where you go if you have to run now If I’m not back by dawn, tell them I’ll be gone and I’ll stay gone somehow All the children know if you jump you fall. And if you jump too high, you fall harder than before All the children say, “Why’d you let me down? Tell me, when you going to come around? I can’t live my life underground. Tell me, when you going to come around?” “Hold your tongue. Hold your tongue. Hold your tongue. Hold your tongue, boy.” Stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring, stop staring at everyone All the children know if you run, you fall. And if you run too fast, you’ll fall harder than before All the children say, “Why’d you let me down? Tell me, when you going to come around? I can’t live my life underground. Tell me, when you going to come around?”
