Growing Down

He doesn't know what's wrong
It's been this way for much too long
And nothing could be easier
Than blaming this on herKicking in the womb, she brings it up
He leaves the room
Walk away all he has to say
You got what you deserveIt's your fault I don't think that it's even mine
And I guess there's not much in his little mind
It's a shame when it happens everydayHe doesn't stop to think
That every bottle that he drinks
Is just an additive to ignorance
Hence problems that existLay down on the bed
And dream of glory days instead
Not egocentric attitudes
Solved problems with a fistI don't understand why he can get so mad
She don't want it either but it's too late dad
It's not right and I doubt next time you'll think twicePretend that they're lovers but she feels like a slave
How could I even know?
She's sinking to the bottom and he can't feel her pain
Too late 'cause the seeds were sownGrowing down instead of up where you belong
Always weak when you're requested to be strong
It's a shame when it happens everydayWe're growing down
We're growing down
