I'm just too afraid to grow up
To find out I'm not me anymore
To turn back and try to return
And to bounce into a barred door

I have grown too fond of myself
Of my freedom and being at ease
I'm afraid that once I grow up
I no longer can do as I please

I don't want to wake up and be told
That I can't run away once again
That I have some responsibilities
Which I must have fought so long to gain

My life looks like a sequence of fires
My way goes from one anneal to next
I've got nothing to hide left in shadows
Everything I can proudly profess
