Hanging By A Thread

Even if we say we will never grow up, we do. As we grow older, we learn a lot about life, and why people are the way they are, and how they survive. Some people, they survive talk about what happened to them. Some people, they survive and they go silent, scared to speak up. As we grow older, we learn why people get addicted to cigarettes, and smoke their lungs until they are black, and they can barely breathe. We learn why people drink their life away, and make it to where they can barely remember a thing. As we grow older, we learn why people would even think about harming their self, or throwing their self off of a building. As we grow up, we learn why people give up.
