Little eyes, they are always watching As I go through fields of sunflowers and clouds of crows They see everything I do Little eyes Little ears, they are always listening As I whisper words that I throw around like pebbles into a river They hear everything I say Little ears Little hands, they always do what I do As I pick up the burdens of this life and hold them tightly to my chest They copy everything I do Little hands Little mouth, they always talk as I talk As I cast my words into a sea of disregarded lies and careless feelings They say everything I say Little mouth Little feet As I walk down the highways of shadows and allies of sunshine They follow me wherever I go Little feet

Little Things
Little eyes, they are always watching As I go through fields of sunflowers and clouds of crows They see everything I do Little eyes Little ears, they are always listening As I whisper words that I throw around like pebbles into a river They hear everything I say Little ears Little hands, they always do what I do As I pick up the burdens of this life and hold them tightly to my chest They copy everything I do Little hands Little mouth, they always talk as I talk As I cast my words into a sea of disregarded lies and careless feelings They say everything I say Little mouth Little feet As I walk down the highways of shadows and allies of sunshine They follow me wherever I go Little feet
As an older sibling, my parents have always told me that I should lead as an example because my little sister is watching, listening, and acting like I do. Because of this, I try my hardest to set a good example for her. She helps me strive to be a better person but sometimes i feel like im failing.
