Why does it seem like i'm more
Than i've ever asked for?
Tell me why does it feel like i'm older
than it says in my passport?
And why am i only lonely
After someone holds me?
Sometimes when i feel weak
and it seems to me like i can't breathe,
I think that i have grown into a tall child.
And then i cry
And then i close my eyes
And mumble many goodbyes.
Could you kiss me goodnight, mother?
I promise tomorrow i'll behave like an adult.
But i think I would rather
be called naïve,
i'd rather be
alive with a child's soul.
The world has many opportunities,
why does it feel like it's tearing us apart brutally?
I'd really love not to see that.
Everyone seems to have a special friend you scream at,
what? i haven't missed my time to get one yet?
well, i certainly don't want that.
And tell me please
Why every time i feel slight happiness,
A car is always there, and a puddle
And the next thing i know my mind's muddled.
Tell me about a place with no ugliness.
Don't worry mom,
I've paid my bills this month,
Though i still have to figure out
how to pay for my life.
