Analysis of Goodbye To Lullaby.



I'll grow from being a teenager next month
To stop from being called a 'teenage-adult'
And i guess it's goodbye to lullaby.

I'll be a proud guy in his 20s next month
Free from the shackles of being teen
So i bet it's goodbye to lullaby.

I'll stop from being a boy next month
To enter the real 'man-hood'
And i know it's goodbye to lullaby.
