Forget Begin
Did you close your eyes like I said
You won’t see anyone else
You won’t miss anyone else
This is moment where you begin
Remember how you felt as a kid
Everything is still inside you
The time is now for discovery
Like a child on Christmas morning
You just got here
You brought all your fears
You remember too much
The past only makes tears
You’re too beautiful to care about that
You’ve felt too much to hate like that
You’ve seen too much to pretend
You’ve loved too much to let it end
Don’t try to be old
Don’t try to be young
That’s not who you are
But you are going to care
You just left that place
You think there’s no other place
That’s not true that's not true
Unless you're too tired to dream
You just got here
You brought all your fears
You remember too much
The past only brings tears
I know you care
I know you’re there
Even if you don’t
Soon you will be
Standing alone
Is when life begins
For a human
Who finds itself
