Where’s the trust?
There hasn’t been a single lie.
Where’s the trust?
I’m actually pretty wise.
I’ll be on my own soon.
I’m almost eighteen.
I’ll be on my own soon.
I’m not a little tween.
Why won’t you listen?
Is it ever going to change?
Why won’t you listen?
I find it kind of strange.
If I’m stuck inside a house,
How can I become responsible?
If I’m stuck inside a house,
How will anything be possible?
What I ask of you is simple.
Just give me a chance.
What I ask of you is simple.
I want to be free to dance.
I can make it.
Just you wait and see.
I can make it.
I want you to be proud of me.
Don’t have any worries.
Don’t think about the maybe.
Don’t have any worries.
I’ll always be your baby.

It is our choices that made us who we are, far beyond our abilities.

This was cool. I liked the rythm.
