Growing Up (Falling Down)

(album: The Living End - 1998)

I'm lying on my head
No I'm
I'm not in my bed
Just checking out the world
From a different angle
That's what happens when you trip
On your blindness always seems
For some reason
That it's happening to me

Why is it so
And why don't I know
Why is it so
I can't see the obstacle
In front of me
The obstacle
In front of me

Christ, I'm falling down again
It happens to me now and then
I'm growing up, yeah
growing up, yeah
I won't let it fade away
I promise to be strong and brave
I'm growing up, yeah
growing up, yeah

Open up your eyes
And maybe then
You'll realise the truth is in
The thoughts you hold
And not the obstacle in front of you

Why is it so
And why don't I know
Why is it so
I can't see the obstacle
In front of me
The obstacle
In front of me

Christ, I'm falling down again
It happens to me now and then
I'm growing up, yeah
growing up, yeah
I won't let it fade away
I promise to be strong and brave
I'm growing up, yeah
growing up, yeah

Falling down, Falling down, Falling down
Falling down, Falling down, Falling down

I'm lying on my head
No I'm
I'm not in my bed
Just checking out the world
From a different angle
That's what happens when you trip
On your blindness always seems
For some reason
That it's happening to me

Why is it so
And why don't I know
Why is it so
I can't see the obstacle
In front of me
The obstacle
In front of me

Christ, I'm falling down again
It happens to me now and then
I'm growing up, yeah
growing up, yeah
I won't let it fade away
I promise to be strong and brave
I'm growing up, yeah
growing up, yeah

Falling down (growing up yeah)
Falling down (growing up yeah)
Falling down (growing up yeah)
Falling down (growing up yeah)
Falling down (growing up yeah)
Falling down (growing up yeah)
