Heart hurts
No tears girl
No tears
No way
Don't cry over
What you can't have
I tell myself
Over and over
Don't cry over
What your too young to have
Too trapped to have
Too boxed in to have
Don't dream about
What you're
Too naive to have
Too young to have
It just makes you
Long for it more
Inside my heart is screaming
To be out of this box I pound against
I need more
Than what I'm allowed
I need one thing
That no one trusts me with
They don't know
How it is
To be in my reality
My perspective is the only reality I have
So I can't tell
If the reasons they give me are right
If I am too young
To know what I need
But I know what
I know
I know myself if nothing else
I can make decisions with only the experience I have
But you know what?
My experience is enough
To know what is right for me now
To know what I need now
They give me reasons
You're not experienced enough to know what you need
This isn't what you need, in a while you'll know that.
But I only know now
Why live at all if you can't live in the moment?
So I am
Fuck my age
Fuck my experience
I am doing what is best for me
And I'm never looking back
Mistakes are inevitable
But I can't live life without mistakes
I can't just take and follow someone telling me they know something
Because they are old and experienced
I need to live it
I need to know for myself
Once I live it myself,
I might know they were right
But I can't
Until I make a mistake and pick myself back up again
Or
I could succeed in this
Perhaps against experience
Perhaps against odds
But I could succeed
But doesn't my choice
To make my own life
Make all the diffrence?
So good-bye
I might be fifteen
And lived in only one town
But I'm escaping the box I've been put in
And I'm living in the moment
Not impulsive
But strong
My own
In a life of depression
I need to escape something
Do something
So I'm going to
Live
