When I'm sad, I am unreasonable
Just like a little kid, mad at the world
When I'm alone, I am defenceless
Just like the boy I was, afraid in the dark

Don't take it personally, don't be offended
Don't mind my mood changing like the weather
God knows I tried to hold it all together
Oh, I'm getting older and it ain't what I thought it would be

Wide awake, the planet spins around
A little too fast for me most of the time
Lost control, my thoughts are flickering
Just like satellites, lost in the sky

Don't take it personally, don't be offended
Don't mind my mood changing like the weather
God knows I've tried to hold it all together
I'm getting older and it ain't what I thought it would be

One day I'll find
Some peace of mind
And then I'll stop being afraid
I'll make it through the night

The more I learn, the less I know
Through every high and every low
Oh, oh, the more I learn (grow)
The less I know (grow)
Through every high and every low (grow)
I'll grow, oh-oh
The more I learn (grow)
The less I know (grow)
Through every high and every low (grow)
I'll grow, oh-oh
