I was young

Too young

I was young

But too wise for my years

No child should know

No child should have to know

That smell, those signs

The ones that mean not today

"Not Today"

No fun or joking around

No going to the park or downtown

You're too tired

Yea, I know...

And you...

Can you even hear me?

Do you see me?

Or do you see two?

No child should know

No child should have to

Pour your drink and measure it just right

1/5 parts normal, 4/5 parts evil

I stand strong for me

Because you couldn't stand at all

I am independent

Because you always needed a hand

I hated you!

I Love You...
