Just A Kid

from TrailBlazer (2012) by slowriter

lyrics

I didn't wanna be forever young
when I was just a kid,
'cause I was just a kid.
But now that I can see how free I was,
I wanna live it all again

Until the deep see grew,
and everything was buried by the salt.
Until the day I fully UNDERSTOOD
that everything would soon come to a halt.
The damage is done and our portion of land is ok,
but I can't say the same for the rest.
Endlessly hunting the right wing,
we'll find it and aim for the head.

We'll work til the moon's gone down
if only you'd listen, if only you'd listen.
I dreamed that you heard it loud
just how I intended, just how I intended.

Workin for the weekend, workin for the weekend
while we sing until we run out of words to say.
Living like a deep end, like a deep end diamond ring
that a diver will discover in the bay.

Until the deep see grew,
and everything was buried by the salt.
Until the day I fully UNDERSTOOD
that everything would soon come to a halt.
The damage is done and our portion of land is ok,
but I can't say the same for the rest.
Endlessly hunting the right wing,
we'll find it and aim for the head.

This is the end of all I know.
I leave tomorrow, it's all for show.
I'll leave you all with this goodbye.
Goodbye.
