• A child sees the world in black and white
    When they see grey
    That's when they've grown up

    Not everything is good or bad
    Some hide behind a mask of kindness
    And others a mask of indifference
    And some are just plain desperate.

    In a fantasy world,
    There's the hero,
    And there's the villian.

    In the real world,
    Perhaps the hero does it for their own gain
    And the villain is just desperate.

    In the fantasy world
    The hero will always
    Always, always beat the villian.

    In real life,
    The hero doesn't always win.
    Sometimes they lose.

    A child sees the world in black and white,
    When they see gray,
    That's when they're grown up.

    They say ignorance is bliss
    But ignorance is a weakness
    Intelligence and cunning
    Will actually get people where they want to go.

    Without knowledge,
    There is no thought,
    Only mindlessness

    Knowledge may bring fantasy crashing down,
    And it may be hard to accept
    And blurr the lines between good and bad
    But when a childrealizes this
    Thats when they're grown up.
    It has nothing to do with age.

    A child sees the world in black and white
    When they see grey
    Thats when they're grown up.
