why does no one tell you, when you're a child, to enjoy it while it lasts each day i feel older than the 1 before and i've no idea where the hours go i wonder if he'll keep me if he'll let me stay by his side, in his heart, with his love his promises say he will but his actions lead me astray as the smoke swirls up and the clock tacks on another minute does he know i'm not there or is the bed the right size now that he's the only one who fills it? the light is on, but i'm in the dark keeping myself awak with thoughts i shouldn't be having my hair is in my face and i want to cut it watch it fall to the floor with my worries but it's too late for that so i'll go and crawl up to his head and kiss him good night/good morning and hope he never knows i'm still awake because i think he doesn't need or want me i can't tell him this, not today because it's his birthday copyright 2003 |
