Childhood's End


You shout in your sleep
Perhaps the price is just too stepp
Is your conscience at rest if once put to the test?
You awake with a start to just the beating of your heart
Just one man beneath the sky,
Just two ears, just two eyes
You set sail across the sea of longpast thoughts and memories
Childhood's end,
Your fantasies merge with harsh realities
And then as the sail is hoist,
You find your eyes are growing moist
All the fears never voiced say you have to make your final choice
Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why?
Some are born;
Some men die beneath one infinite sky
There'll be war, there'll be peace
But everything one day will cease
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust
And so all things, time will mend
So this song will end
