Kid For Life
Red and yellow crayons lived inside my pockets
But they're empty now
Said that it gets better
Yeah I pinky promised
But I broke that years ago
Welcome to the real world
Where it hurts more
More than you know
And the time moves slow
Listen to the radio
You sing something that goes like
Wouldn't it be nice if we could all be kids for life
Then everything would feel like getting lost in paradise
Oh I wish I was a kid
Happy I'd be
Oh I wish I was a kid
Swinging from trees
I wish I didn't have to pop a pill to kill the pain I feel
To put myself to sleep at night
Oh I wish I was a kid
Wake up in the morning
Read the news and cry
Every day feels like were on the losing side
Its a lie, its a lie
Should I say it twice
But sir, but sir
Take a look outside
Oh how can you deny
Or turn a blinded eye
It's not motherhood and apple pie, rainbows, and butterflies
Welcome to the real world
Where it hurts more
More than you know
And the time moves slow
Listen to the radio
You sing something that goes like
Wouldn't it be nice if we could all be kids for life
Then everything would feel like getting lost in paradise
Oh I wish I was a kid
Happy I'd be
Oh I wish I was a kid
Swinging from trees
I wish I didn't have to pop a pill to kill the pain I feel
To put myself to sleep at night
Oh I wish I was a kid
But they're empty now
Said that it gets better
Yeah I pinky promised
But I broke that years ago
Welcome to the real world
Where it hurts more
More than you know
And the time moves slow
Listen to the radio
You sing something that goes like
Wouldn't it be nice if we could all be kids for life
Then everything would feel like getting lost in paradise
Oh I wish I was a kid
Happy I'd be
Oh I wish I was a kid
Swinging from trees
I wish I didn't have to pop a pill to kill the pain I feel
To put myself to sleep at night
Oh I wish I was a kid
Wake up in the morning
Read the news and cry
Every day feels like were on the losing side
Its a lie, its a lie
Should I say it twice
But sir, but sir
Take a look outside
Oh how can you deny
Or turn a blinded eye
It's not motherhood and apple pie, rainbows, and butterflies
Welcome to the real world
Where it hurts more
More than you know
And the time moves slow
Listen to the radio
You sing something that goes like
Wouldn't it be nice if we could all be kids for life
Then everything would feel like getting lost in paradise
Oh I wish I was a kid
Happy I'd be
Oh I wish I was a kid
Swinging from trees
I wish I didn't have to pop a pill to kill the pain I feel
To put myself to sleep at night
Oh I wish I was a kid
