Letra de Like Child Like Man

Twenty years ago the seed of what was to grow was planted. When I was a child My world was so small A satellite of love Naive it revolved Life was fun and games I always played by the rules But was it ever in my hands After so much to go through When did I lose my way? When did life fade away? The price we pay to learn: innocence Rust, decay, loss, we fade away Slowly it all did change My folks grew estranged No one told me why Things could never be the same No more fun or games Rules are for the insane it was never in my hands After fate was through When did I lose my way? When did life fade away? I never lost my way I was always drifting away The price we pay to learn: innocence Rust, decay, loss, we fade away Here I've tried to change what I am I've tried to become not like you Dad I've tried to walk away from the path you did. The path you took! was it worth it? Weather beaten and exposed on the ledge so formidable a rock you were, yet something happened ... a tiny little fissure and water burst forth in a steady trickle In child the seeds of hatred Like the man; mirror image. In child the seeds of despair Like the man; living life in rage. When I turn back these pages of my life I see parallels with my old man Now I realize he's what I've become Now I realize just what I've become
