When I was a kid
When I was a kid I used to have big heart, and then I learned the world wasn't a place for people like me
When I was a kid I had yet to learn the world was a harsh place
Step or be stepped on, kill or be killed
When I was a kid I learned that all too late
When I was a kid I had my heart broken many times because I felt to much
My heart was broken by people who didn't understand and didn't care
When I was a kid I cared too much, now I don't care at all
Now my heart is all sharp teeth and barbed wire, concrete walls and burning fire
My hands scarred with my own dreams I murdered, in an effort to be heard
I am no longer soft grass and morning dew, fluffy clouds and skies so blue
I'm gray clouds, dark and mean, I am a raging storm yet unseen
I am rough and jagged like the pieces of my shattered heart
I guess I'm partially to blame
Letting people in then shutting them out as they get to close
I've come to realize that I am a better knife than person
When I was a kid my heart was stabbed with the harsh truth of the world and know It's all I know
Stab or be stabbed
When I was a kid I saw the world for what It was
