If you knew my age
would you turn tail and run away?
Say I'm too young to understand
These feelings and god's greater plan?
Would you say I'm being over-dramatic
or a little bit selfish?
That it's not my right to decide my own feelings and choices?
That I should stop being so negative and start to cherish?
Maybe I should just sit back and listen to the voices
In my ear
Down my neck
In my business
Over my shoulder
Not the ones in my head,
Not my conscience that is me and belongs to me
No, I have to live the way everyone else expects me to...
