Adolescent Purgatory

Play time’s over it’s all done

But what’s the fun

If it’s all planned out for you

Copy and paste for best results

The archetype has been pre-molded

Guess I’ll be seeing you around

I tried to grow up but I don’t know how

Another face into the crowd

It’s time to put away your toys

Leave childish things behind

Conform before you

Head face first into the crash

Or hold on tight

And brace for impact

Guess I’ll be seeing you around

I tried to grow up but I don’t know how

Society collective frown

You better stake your claim

Before it gets too late

Better sign on the line

Before you’re left behind

What’s the point

Of forcing something on yourself

If it’s not what you want

Or what feels right

Just ‘cause you tell yourself

That you’re behind

Play time’s done

Your time’s run out

So get in line

To get bent over

Guess I’ll be seeing you around

I tried to grow up but I don’t know how

Another face inside the crowd
