Grow up
Verse
Up country a house was burning
A father lays bare, smoked and pleading
The first stone was cast by Mary
The anger and agony, where is my baby?
Down by the riverside a farm was flooded
A husband lays bare, washed out and sordid
His last breath from Stella’s chest
After all those words, her hands said it best
Chorus
How immature we know, we know
For demanding the truth and making a show
Yeah, grow up, grow up, we know
But all we had was our youth
And now we are old
Verse
Up in the city a condo was cracking
A mother lays bare, broken and staring
The last stone was cast by Mary
Crying and swearing, did you know about daddy?
Down in the suburbs white picket fence broken
A wife lays bare, strangled unspoken
Stella stood tall, took a deep breath
This time her words will punch in depth
Chorus
How immature we know, we know
For demanding the truth and making a show
Yeah, grow up, grow up, we know
But all we had was our youth
And now we are old
Outro
All we had was our youth
We are not children, nor killers, no
We just want the truth
