Final Frontier
When I was young
I had a dream
That anything was possible
But as I grew
My mom and dad
Would fight at the dinner table
Hide in my room
And lock the door
No one to comfort my heart
That's when I knew
I was alone
And had to watch it fall apart
When I was young
I had to leave
To live with friends so shame on me
As I saw things
That no kid should
I'm not who I'm supposed to be
Just damaged goods
Out in the cold
Yesterday new tomorrow old
A system kid
No foster home
Two full time jobs God bless his soul
When I was young
I had a wish
That my parents would be like his
And let me be
To learn and grow
Just like a plant in the soil
Not left to bleed
Thrown out and torn
Among the weeds and never born
Into the might
Of an oak tree
I have no roots I'm just a leaf
I had a dream
That anything was possible
But as I grew
My mom and dad
Would fight at the dinner table
Hide in my room
And lock the door
No one to comfort my heart
That's when I knew
I was alone
And had to watch it fall apart
When I was young
I had to leave
To live with friends so shame on me
As I saw things
That no kid should
I'm not who I'm supposed to be
Just damaged goods
Out in the cold
Yesterday new tomorrow old
A system kid
No foster home
Two full time jobs God bless his soul
When I was young
I had a wish
That my parents would be like his
And let me be
To learn and grow
Just like a plant in the soil
Not left to bleed
Thrown out and torn
Among the weeds and never born
Into the might
Of an oak tree
I have no roots I'm just a leaf
