They tell me I need to grow up
That my sitting around needs to stop
If only they knew
The struggles I hold within
If only they knew
I’m not ready to begin
If only they knew
The inner turmoil that’s breaking me apart
If only they knew
I didn’t have the heart
If only they knew
That inside I am sad
If only they knew
That I’m hurting so bad
If only they knew
I’m really not strong enough
If only they knew
The life I’ve lived was rough
They want me to make them proud
To let them boast and show me around the crowd
Oh, if only they knew
If only they knew
