The Real World?

Boxed up board games and forgotten toys.

Left to gather dust as you claim you 'grow up.'

It's a shame you don't see it now, it's a shame you'll only see when it's too late.

See what?

That 'growing up' isn't all it's cracked up to be.

You're finding love,

You're moving out,

You're growing up.

Welcome to the new world.

 

Ten years on, you're stuck again.

You're sitting alone in the house you don't own,

You're eating the food you can only just afford,

Paid for by the job you can only just do.

 

'Why didn't I hold on?'

Welcome to the real world.

'Why did I throw it away?'
