Just a Kid

He told me left she told me right

Why is it always so black and white

Checking for a pulse

Or a sign of life I likely will not find

We'll be pawns you be the knight

Tell us the stories from your mind

My wires may be crossed

But I will find my way if I know how

Looking for a way to start again

To reconcile the voices that still live in my head

I believed each word that was ever said

Unaware that the truth is a paradox in the end

You don't care

They care too much

Now I find myself withdrawn

Of course I hear the words

But I don't know who I can trust right now

Pour the oil

Light the flame

Go on set it all ablaze

Finally grown my wings

And I will fly away I swear to god

Looking for a way to start again

To reconcile the voices that still live in my head

I believed each word that was ever said

Unaware that the truth is a paradox in the end

No need to keep saying sorry

Let's keep the past behind

Just know that I know

The intentions were fine

But the outcome won't always align

But now I'm just a kid and I don't know a thing

About how to live life and to be functioning

But I'm on my own with too much to say

And while no one chases I still run away

I still run away

I still run away

You show me yours I'll show you mine

Me oh my oh my oh my

Hitchhiking can only get you so far

Until you need to drive

Pour the oil

Light the flame

Go on set it all ablaze

Finally grown my wings

And I will fly away I swear to god
