I used to

101 22 9
                                    

I used to point my finger to a certain cloud

Wondering what shape it looks like

I used to choose one between the crowd

That one looked like my dream bike

I used to watch the other kids biking around

And I.. , and I  hoping I could try for one round

I used to go say hi
Their reply was always a bye

After that, I go home trying so hard not to cry

Looking into the mirror to see that little teardrop falling from my eye

announcing my defeat
as it fall down ; as I frown

My only escape was to watch the sky

My only escape was to act shy

My only escape was to hide my tears so I don't be found

So I don't be asked about the drops on the ground

My only escape was to buy my own bike

and I did

I used to point my finger to a certain cloud

Wondering what shape it looks like

I used to choose one between the crowd

That one looked like suicide
