Have you ever felt like an oversharer?
Tellin' everyone until someone cares
Because your parents were never there
It just isn't very fair
Who can you depend on emotionally?
Who can teach you the skills you need?
When you're left on your own, just like me
They hate you showing emotions when you have them
They act so superior when you cry, like they haven't
And it's so hard not to get upset,
But they haven't allowed me
It doesn't seem to matter how loud we,
Try to stand up for ourselves
We just hide in our shells
Because it's all we've ever known of
We're adults, but we're not grown ups
They don't seem to care about your feelings if your age ends in teen
They sweep away your problems without caring what they could mean
If you cry, then you're too weak to handle anything real
They expect you to be strong, but don't allow you to feel
Got depression? They say to walk it off!
Fake the happiness you've been stripped of
And it's so hard not to get upset,
But they haven't allowed me
It doesn't seem to matter how loud we,
Try to stand up for ourselves
We just hide in our shells
Because it's all we've ever known of
We're adults, but we're not grown ups
I fear for my whole generation
As we age and join the nation
We can hardly handle what we feel
I'm scared for when we take the wheel
Maybe, everything will be alright
Maybe, the dawn is after the night
And we're not going to rip this country apart
Because we're in touch with our hearts
We want to do your generation justice
But you're gonna have to trust us
And it's so hard not to get upset,
But they haven't allowed me
It doesn't seem to matter how loud we,
Try to stand up for ourselves
We just hide in our shells
Because it's all we've ever known of
We're adults, but we're not grown ups

Songs I Wrote
PuisiHere are some songs I wrote. The ones that end in (Old Song) are ones I wrote when I was 14. They're not all that good, but I thought it'd be cool to have my old songs here alongside my new ones. I think it shows how much I've changed and improved...
