i studied the other kids
playing away blissfully
they didn't know
what life had in store for them
i didn't know either
but I knew it wasn't great
they dreamed of being a dancer
i dreamed of dancing my life away
never did I ask them
if they knew too
what our parents knew
they kept us in the dark
but I knew the truth
bad things happened in the world
and most of them couldn't be stopped
