All those growing pains that I was facing,
Thinking it was blowing up in my face.
Just how wrong a child can be,
The answers weren't in them, but not in me.
Never in that sense of jealousy.
Trying to escape our own thoughts and minds was so much a part of the time.
Looking out on all those minds was overwhelming all of the time.
Uncertainty was on my mind, wondering just what this time.
The time came to be my mind, it's nice to be free of them.
This one's for every time that I took this seriously,
Face value says not much but what's the point of feeling defeated - when there's enough waiting to drag you down without doing it yourself.
In fact, why make it easier for them if you've other things to contend.
