How do you expect us to reach our parents standards
When we have yet to reach our own

How do you tell us we are free

How do you say money can buy happiness
When in your mind no matter who's around all you feel is alone

How do you say you understand
When in the end we are all different and what I think will be different from what you do

How can you say anything
In a world where we live but barely know
