Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
See all the little ones running and hiding Because they're afraid of the sound of the fighting No one around here really wants to know What's really waiting out there in the forest Hearing the voices all lifted in chorus Lions and tigers and bears and an old scarecrow Childhood's end, childhood's end The drums in the dark and bells that are ringing That's not a lullaby that they are singing It's just a dirge for your imaginary friend The sky is the color of blood in the morning Bundle your blanket that's the only warning That the future is going to send Childhood's end, childhood's end Innocence is a lie You want to sleep in a cradle in the sky You need a grownup to take you by the hand You're a stranger in Toyland Hope is the light your childhood relies on Betrayal is the hill that your childhood dies on Buried alongside imaginary friends Lions and tigers and bears left behind you With a trail of crumbs they still won't find you This is how your childhood ends Childhood's end, childhood's end, childhood's end
