Description
Too young.

I remember when I met you that first day at school
You were the one, the centre, popularity can be so cruel
Egos swelled
Unchecked and unparalleled

Then there was me
Sidelined, blindsided
Terrified and ever reminded
Of what a failure, I deemed myself to be
The rotten branch on the family tree.

Heart beaten black and blue
Despite that, I still got you
Rampant insecurity, nerves shocked
Girl you had my heart fucking overclocked.
What the fuck was I to you?
A front row seat to something new?
Life`s a movie, and mine is a tragedy
I was my own adversary.

As the years went on, I had you, but I wanted something more
Drugs wrapped up in the plastic of a cryptic metaphor
I became something more
Popular with the wrong crowd
My future screamed, so loud
Come on dad, look at me
Isn`t this just how you wanted me to be?

Beads of sweat rubbed between you and I
Abortion over the sound of a babies cry
But still our passion swelled
Unchecked and unparalleled

Life`s a game
So lets hit the methadone clinic
And win it
Grab hold of the wheel of misfortune and spin it

Too young you and I
Too young to see you die
Tear stained faces
Baseline`s the basis
Stuck screaming under a ruined tower
Life once more made me cower
