Joni Was Right

(album: Joni Was Right, Pt. II - 2016)

I thought gardens were amusement parks
Spider webs were works of art
And war was just
Another game we played

Time just sent me off to bed
Love was just a word we said
I thought someone would always keep me safe
And that I might become an astronaut some day

Growing up is falling down
And landing safely on the ground
Waking up in the dead of night
Thinking oh my god – Joni was right

Between the downfalls and the deepest pains
Lessons learned the hardest ways
I hope, that there was something left so save
So I went back to try and find the innocence I left behind
And realized my paradise was paved

Growing up is falling down
And landing safely on the ground
Waking up in the dead of night
Thinking oh my god – Joni was right

The cost of being wild and free
The endless possibility
The open road in front of me
It's harder than I thought it'd be

Growing up is falling down
And landing safely on the ground
Waking up in the dead of night
Thinking oh my god – Joni was right
