GUIDING LIGHT

i remember looking up to the king and the queen of this four-wall-kingdom
my guiding lights in every night, my solid stones in the river of time

you were the gods, you were the all-knowing
you were the masters of my universe
you had the answers to all my questions
and i believed every word you said

through the years it dawned on me
that nothing's quite as it seems
even the king sometimes cries at night
even the queen isn't always right

you made it look so easy
like there's nothing you couldn't do
oh i thought we would just grow up
but i'm the child that i ever was

and when we grow old
we would grow stronger by the minute
that's what i was sold
but i didn't sign up for this

and i know
i doesn't ever turn out how we wanted
or how we were told
but i didn't sign up for this

i'm a dreamer
surrounded by made up minds
i'm fragile
surrounded by bricks and knifes
i'm a lover
in a world of broken hearts
a hopless case
in a world that doesn't grand new starts

when we grow old
we would know what keeps the earth in her orbit
and the feet on the ground
but no one's ever tought me this
and i still don't know
how to walk a straight line
without looking or falling down
cause no one's ever taught me this
chorus 1

and we would know what keeps the earth in her orbit
and the feet on the ground
but no one's ever tought me this
when we grow old
we would know what keeps the earth in her orbit
and the feet on the ground
but no one's ever tought me this
and i still don't know
how to be a guiding light
how to be a solid stone
cause no ones ever taught me this
