A/N: Tried a song... Eh... How is it?

[Growing up]

I know
You want to scream
You want to yell
Till the clock strikes twelve
But is it really worth your tears?

You're
Drowning in lies and emotion
Caught up in your expectations
Causing so much frustration
In need of just some affection

You don't have to change
Oh no, no, no, no
I can't feel your pain
Oh no, no, no, no
So why does it matter if it's all just fake?
So why do you try to fit in?

~

Laying in bed
Crying out
"God protect me,
Save me now."
Before you lose all your hope,
Joyfully singing when you can't cope.

~

Trapped
In a cage
With no escape
Crying silently,
Tears flowing, salty taste.
If the world could just understand
The pressure put on me.

Just can't cope
Just can't breathe
Laying in bed
Sleepless nights, I breathe
Afraid of what would happen
If I didn't do everything
If I wasn't so sleep deprived.

I spend my days in a sleepy slumber
Drowning in a pile of ashes, since
Since I grew up.
