Growing Up to Grow Apart Songtext
von Half Shy

Hide with me, under the tarp in your father′s boat
And don't make a sound
Your mother′s callin' comin' round
Climb with me, we′re on the roof
We′re the tyrants now, he calls us down
Your father's always serious now

We can play at being broken
We can play at being boys
Young and game to be destroyed
We can play at being broken
We can play at being boys
You can hear it in our voice

We′re growing up to grow apart
We're growing up to grow apart
You can be the one that I tell all the girls that I loved in the dark
It′ll be a quiet road to break each other's hearts

Lie with me
Narrowed eyes, phantom pains, crooked teeth
We are the kings, the happiest we′ll ever be


We can play at being broken
We can play at being boys
Young and game to be destroyed
We can play at being broken
We can play at being boys
You can hear it in our voice

We're growing up to grow apart
We're growing up to grow apart
You can be the one that I tell all the girls that I loved in the dark
It′ll be a quiet road to break each other′s hearts

So tear it off slowly
A little shock of pain, see another friend, just some kid again
Forever isn't always
We both discover girls
And I forget to be kind, I tell another lie, I′ll tell another lie
We're learning to be lonely

We′re growing up to grow apart
We're growing up to grow apart
You can be the one that I tell all the girls that I loved in the dark
It′ll be a quiet road to break each other's hearts
