When we were little the monsters were under our beds
But now that we're older the monsters are in our heads
The most pain we experienced was scraped knees
But now it's a life full of mistakes and pain that makes us freeze
In shock, in disbelief that something so simple can hurt so much
From our parents soothing us as babies with a single touch
To not even wanting to be near them and arguing every day
Life being full of colors and hope to be being dull and grey
We really wanted to be older, we wanted to be grown up
But now that we look at it being older isn't so fun close-up
How I wish that I could that I could be a kid once again
I wish all the intense and endless pain
Would finally just disappear
That it would finally just stop causing me such fear.

We would draw on paper or even on the walls
Now we paint our wrist with our sharp blades…
As a kid we had more falls than anything else
But now we’re scared to fall in love
Because anything beautiful fades
For our amusement we capture the lovely dove,
And we cut the beautiful rose and just watch it die.
But love is no different because everything changes as soon as you blink
Your appearance changes as each year goes by
Your minds use to seem in sync
But now you can't even understand each other
And that's what frightens us the most, rejection.
