Clipped Wings

You're a big boy now, you're all grown up 

from the silver spoon to the golden cup 

out all night now, you're making friends 

high on life and it never ends 

what you've got though, it's not enough 

a rusty spoon and a pinch of dust 

frame your argument to live the lie 

press the death that you can't disguise 

test the waters and try new things 

our little angel has lost his wings 

life's so hard when you're on your own 

but you've cut all ties 

so there's no going home
