late 20s

i never thought

that i would be

the type of girl with flowers at her feet

i never thought

myself in white

it's all i see now when i look into the light

i never wanted

to have a baby

it's all i think about

it drives me crazy

i never thought

that i would be

the woman that i am today back when i was seventeen

you should have warned me

you should have told me

you should have woken me up from those truths

and now i see it

and i can feel it

but i don't know exactly how to be it

when i was just a little girl

i saw my future wide and bright when i stared up at the world

i always thought

that i would make it

i used to think that i would have to fake it

and now i cry

every single night

i'm not the same as i was before

i used to picture so much more

you should have warned me

you should have told me

you should have woken me up from those truths

and now i see it

and i can feel it

but i don't know exactly how to be it

i talk too much

i think too much

i spend too much time in my head

time in my head

time in my head

time in my head

you should have warned me

you should have told me

you should have woken me up from those truths

and now i see it

and i can feel it

but i don't know exactly how to be it

you should have warned me

you should have told me

you should have woken me up from those truths

and now i see it

and i can feel it

but i don't know exactly how to be it
