It Will End In Tears

So now I understand
The differences I've seen
Between the grown man
And the boy he’s been
It's a simple plan
You make it through the day
Till night comes again
To let those dreams escape
Of falling down and drowning
Of flying over buildings
Of rescue and reunion
For the ones you love

You know the truth
All laughter dies
And even you
Knows this world will end
People change
And people go
And most times we know
It will end in tears

There's a constant pull
To keep us spinning round
See the stars appear
And the seasons come
This old world goes on
And people get things done
One man sets a clock
For how high the tide will come
To mark out every ending
And welcome each beginning
Of rescue and reunion
For the ones you love

You know the truth
All laughter dies
And even you
Knows this world will end
People change
And people go
And most times we know
It will end in tears
