lyrics

When we were young they told us how to live - When we were kids, they told us not sin - But, as we grow we can tell the difference between a bunch of lies and things like 2+2=4 - I am nothing like you - Your hatred all your judgement too
I’m not gonna live my life like that - I just want to be myself, with a better cause than all your health - Please don’t lead me - I don’t want to down your spoon - All I want is for you to leave me inside my room - If I were still a child I would never want to go I would never want to grow - just stay inside from all the cold - If I were still there I would always stay away from all the darkness I could not see - Now you’re like me - I could not ever be different - Your way of life does not make sense - It’s just how it all goes - I never asked for your help - I never wanted out of jail - I just wanted to stay home And now you’re alone I want to feel - I want to live - For the rest of my life I want to give - I hope you can somehow understand - I don’t need you to hold my hand
