In Spite Of The World - The Ataris

I woke up from this dream to find that I was sleeping

So I went back to sleep and I dreamed I was awake

I locked myself inside but you were on the outside

I stood outside and watched, but I couldn’t let you in

If only you could see the you that is a part of me

Maybe you could see inside yourself

Wrote a letter to myself, but I couldn’t bare to send it

So I tore it up and wrote a letter to a friend

If only you could know that growing up means letting go

Maybe then you’d grow up by yourself

I’m growing up again

I’m learning to accept

That all good things must come to an end

I’m growing up again

I’m trying to understand what it’s like

To let go of a friend
