When I was a little girl 

mumbling about the nonsense all day 

Telling you about everything in my brain 

You listened.

That must have been sweet.

 

When I was a little older

I began to dream 

Telling you about how I want to do all the great things 

You listened.

People must think you were crazy.

 

Then I was changing a little 

I was cynical and bitter 

I rant and vent to you about the tiniest things

You listened.

You must’ve been blaming yourself

 

Then I went away from you 

One night you pick up a call from me 

You were my last hope

I was scared to hell

For hours I cried,

Telling you about how I wanted to leave everything behind 

For hours, you listened.

You heart must’ve been torn part.

 

All theses years 

All these worlds 

All these times I though you weren’t on my side

You listened.
