So fragile, a young mind being molded

Impressionable as they decipher the world

A living portrait of what you've painted

Don't underestimate the mind of a child

Cause it's amazing just how they soak it up



Oh resentment in a young man's mind

Well he didn't just fall out of a rain cloud

Coarse vigor preceeding a landslide

A rigid walk by way of his wounds

It's amazing just how we soak it up

Oh it's amazing just how we soak it up



Eyes now closing as the fists come crashing down

The young child in the corner sits wondering

Oh What have I done?

Oh what have I done?

It's amazing just how we soak it up

Oh it's amazing just how we soak it up



Is life a lesson of learning

Is life a lesson we've been taught

Is life a lesson of learning

Is life a lesson we've been taught

It's amazing just how we soak it up

Oh its amazing just how we soak it up

Oh it's amazing....

Just how....

We soak it up....

We soak it up....

We soak it up
