When I was only six,
I wanted to see what's behind the school's gates
I wanted to run, play, and eat a huge bag of chips
At those times, I only wanted playmates
When I was thirteen,
I wanted to see what's behind the walls of my classroom
I want to know what it feels like to be a teen,
I wanted to experience kissing an older girl with a fancy perfume
When I was sixteen,
I wanted to go away from a place called "home."
I wanted to find myself in a new place I have never been
At that time, I wished to be more human than an obeying machine
When I was twenty,
I thought I had it all in my palm of my hands
I had her, an apartment, small job; I never felt empty
I thought I figured my purpose, but she suddenly walked away
I said to myself, "I thought had it all,"
But it was not meant to prolong,
I found myself staring at the ceiling and becoming suicidal
I left my family and she left me for another one.
I wish I never left my home,
I wish I have never been this negative
I want to start another life,
Somewhere far from my mistakes
