I'm No Longer A Kid


You make me feel empty 
You make me feel sad
You make me feel like I have lost everything I had

Now all I do is lay here and cry
I even sometimes wish I could just lay down and die

I'm sick of this life
I'm sick of these tears
I'm sick of the guilt trip you put on me for years and years

I'm going to live life as I choose
I'm no longer going to cry tears because of you
I'm not going to feel guilty for the things that you did
And I will say this I'm no longer a kid

This is a fight I'm willing to win
