Lyrics
Childhood's End
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
While I can't hold your hand, son
I will have your back
If a mountain stood in the way of my father
The mountain would move aside
A feat that wasn't passed down to me
A boy with a crown
An ill-fitting one
People post-breakdown
How their souls have been tested
In these times everyone
Is both judge and jury
And you still live in cages
Just with longer chains
New world disorder, that's how we exist
New world disorder, we can't resist
Dredge my heart of all the fear that I have inside
Minds, they forget
But the scars remember everything
No matter how much I've tried
You will reject
My attempts to be your rightful king
Your king
And I seem to make enemies
Faster than I make friends
I can't really find the remedy
Do we get the life that we deserve?
New world disorder, that's how we exist
New world disorder, we can't resist
Dredge my heart of all the fear that I have inside
Minds, they forget
But the scars remember everything
No matter how much I've tried
You will reject
My attempts to be your king
Childhood's end
A sudden end
I tried to burn away my fear and anger
And how I prayed it would hurt no longer
Imagine a king who fights his own battles
I prefer my demons stirred not shaken
You can drown your pain, but it will learn to swim
Some people treat life like a disease
And I am one of them
I am one of them
All the fear that I have inside
Dredge my heart of all the fear that I have inside
Minds, they forget
But the scars remember everything
No matter how much I've tried
You will reject
My attempts to be your rightful king
Your king
