As We Grow
Mercury Jane

As we grow

We move past our childhood playmates
And you realize how sometimes who we meet along way is more important than our childhood memories

We begin to see pass our fears of the darkness
And see through the illusions and shadows

We began to realize who is there forever
And who will be gone tomorrow

We understand tomorrow comes quickly
And that we must enjoy the moment while it last

We begin to see that forever means today
And true friends don’t come with promises

We begin to understand that fate is good to all who deserve
And the bad always get what's coming

We learn love doesn’t always conquer all
And that good doesn’t win every battle

As we grow we learn to look inside to survive
And not at everyone else
