i remember when i used to catch fireflys
and watch them as they glow
but now they're a distant memory
of the childhood i should have known
i've always been
a little less then a prodogy
but
a little more then average
my "childhood" was (is) just a job
for which i didn't get paid
and when i was tired of acting (not so) my age
my parents told me i had to go
i've always been
a little more then needed
but
a little less then right
and everyday i'd tell my bones to just
hold on tight
but now i'm breaking
making every single move a mistake
and
takeing every single word that you say
but hey
i'm 12 years old
why would i have a say?
so every night the only thing i could do
was catch fireflys
but i'm too old now
and i have bible study tonight
