i'm not a man

i'm a boy

inside my mind 

i'm still a child

i have so much growing to do

i don't want to grow up with you

there are some times i have to be a man

to act like an adult

for others, sometimes even for myself

but i don't want to

i'm peter pan

i don't grow up

and be a man

and with you, i feel so small

so young, so scared

it's like i never grew at all

i'm old, two decades

and i feel it a lot more than i should

but you've reverted me

to something i didn't i could be

the years stole it away

they buried it deep inside

but now it's come out of hiding

to play
