I was a wayward child
With the weight of the world that I had deep inside
Life was a winding road
And I learned many things little ones shouldn't know
But I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my hands to the sky
And though time's rolled by
Still I feel like that child as I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon
Funny how one can learn
To grow numb to the madness and block it away
I left the worst unsaid
Let it all dissipate and I try to forget
As I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my hands to the sky
And the time rolled by
Still I feel like a child as I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon
Nearing the edge, oblivious, I almost fell right over
A part of me will never feel quite able to feel stable
That woman-child fading inside was on the verge of fading
Thankfully I woke up in time
Guardian angel I sail away on an ocean with you by my side
Orange clouds roll by
They burn into your image and you're still alive
You're always alive
As I close my eyes
Steady my feet on the ground
Raise my hands to the sky
And though time rolls by
Still I feel like a child as I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon
