Teenagers
Your best friends become strangers
Lollipops turn into cigarettes
Homework goes into the trash
Soda becomes vodka
And kisses turn into sex
Remember the high ment
Swinging on the playground?
When protection meant wearing a helmet?
When the worst thing you could get from boys was cooties?
Dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth
Your worst enemies were your siblings
The only drug you knew was panadol
Wearing a skirt didn't make you a whore
They only thing that hurt you was your grazed knees
And goodbyes only meant until tomorrow?
We all said we couldn't wait to grow up.
What were we thinking?
