when I was a kid
I'm not alone here
But it feels like I've said goodbye
To those near
To my heart and to my side
At this point
I've grown up just enough
To realize I'm not as tough
As I once thought
Well now I guess more things make sense
Like how people change and love is a dance
I hope things turn out how they're meant to be
I realize that life is changing
And slowing down is fascinating
But life is not what it was like
When I was a kid
It used to be simple
When blanket capes made me feel brave
And mom's hugs made me feel so safe
But these are just my thoughts outside of
My head every day seems like a mountain
That I have to climb
Still, some things don't make much sense
But today's a lesson tomorrow's a chance
To understand what understanding is
And I'm realizing day by day
That life's not fair
And plans get changed
I should really call my parents more
Mmm
Sorry I don't call home enough
I'm just scared I'll start to miss you too much
Mmm
Life has had its ups and downs
But I'll do everything I can
To make both of you proud
Still, some things don't make much sense
But today's a lesson tomorrow's a chance
To understand what understanding
I realize that life is changing
And slowing down is fascinating
But life is not what it was like
When I was a kid
But it feels like I've said goodbye
To those near
To my heart and to my side
At this point
I've grown up just enough
To realize I'm not as tough
As I once thought
Well now I guess more things make sense
Like how people change and love is a dance
I hope things turn out how they're meant to be
I realize that life is changing
And slowing down is fascinating
But life is not what it was like
When I was a kid
It used to be simple
When blanket capes made me feel brave
And mom's hugs made me feel so safe
But these are just my thoughts outside of
My head every day seems like a mountain
That I have to climb
Still, some things don't make much sense
But today's a lesson tomorrow's a chance
To understand what understanding is
And I'm realizing day by day
That life's not fair
And plans get changed
I should really call my parents more
Mmm
Sorry I don't call home enough
I'm just scared I'll start to miss you too much
Mmm
Life has had its ups and downs
But I'll do everything I can
To make both of you proud
Still, some things don't make much sense
But today's a lesson tomorrow's a chance
To understand what understanding
I realize that life is changing
And slowing down is fascinating
But life is not what it was like
When I was a kid
