Epiphany

not an adult

They tell me I'm almost an adult

"Act like it"

It's an endless assault

Can't you see all I did?

I'm tired of doing never enough

I'm still young after all

Why do you want me to do stuff

When I'm still learning how to fall?

Hey grown up, grown up

I don't want to be you

Reaching for the next alcohol cup

Darkening the world in a grey view

I'm a kid stuck in an almost adult's body

I still need my stuffed hamster to sleep

Is it really that hard to see

That jump you want us to do is too big a leap?

I know the world's not fair

But can't you slow down

Before my mind tears?
