I'm staring at walls and hiding away. Breathing to fast for a normal day Yet at the same time I can't breathe As I stare at the test in front of me.
Life can take you in unplanned ways, And leave you hanging with only a few days. And here I ask you, who am I? To choose between death and life?
I'm seventeen, I'm too young to make this choice, To silence another soul and bury down their voice. But as the seconds tick on by And as I feel my eyes dry
I think of how hard it would be If there was something growing inside of me. That "Just one time" was probably enough. And that even protection isn't so tough.
No matter how far I reach Your tiny hands are too far from me, And I want to hold you in my arms And protect you from all world harms.
I want to wipe away your little sorrows And hold you for every tomorrow And lift you up above my head so high, That you could take flight in the sky.
And when I look into your eyes, The color of midsummer skies, I'll be looking into his too. Because love gave his eyes to you.
And our little family would fight along And we'd have to find a way to be strong. School would be a dying dream. More jobs would magnetize me.
And I love you, I love you, I really do. But it's much too soon for me to have you. And there's still a minute until the end of the test. And I can't find where I lost my breath.
Baby, be patient, you'll be here one day. But if I want what's best for you, I can't let you stay. And I'm sorry for ever doing wrong, But my love for you is much too strong.
I'm staring at walls and hiding away. Breathing to fast for a normal day Yet at the same time I can't breathe As the test says "No - " in front of me.
