do we still grow when we're old? Lyrics

I thought that I

I thought that I would have some answers

By now

I thought that I

I thought that would have just something

Figured out

But I

Have come up short again

On that, I guess I can depend

If we built a house, then knocked it down

Would our home become the ground we built it on?

If we took our lives, and tore them up

Would our souls return to the dust that they’re made from?

It took some time

It took some time to get to where I

Am standing now

It took a while

Yeah, it took a while and I’m still stumbling round in the dark

Waiting to be found

‘Cause I

Have come up short again

On that, I guess I can depend

If we built a house, then knocked it down

Would our home become the ground we built it on?

If we took our lives, and tore them up

Would our souls return to the dust that they’re made from?

‘Cause I

Would like to know

Do we still grow when we’re old?

Will I

Get to see

The person I thought I would be?

Or just me?

If we built a house, then knocked it down

Would our home become the ground we built it on?

If we took our lives, and tore them up

Would our souls return to the dust that they’re made from?

‘Cause I

Would like to know

Do we still grow when we’re old?

Will I

Get to see

The person I thought I would be?

Or just me?
