When You Were a Kid

When you were a kid
You had this sugar in your walk
I noticed when I watched you skip away
We ran into the woods and overturned a couple rocks
And ripped a bunch of plants out of the ground
The thing that gets me down is not the memory
But what it truly shows
The thing that keeps me down is
But a feeling of a memory I know

When you were a kid
You never talked about your mom
Though everybody knew she passed away
Everything was hollow and it hurt to see your face
Become so old at such an early age

I think about it now
And shake my head around and thrash it all about
I think about it now
It makes my teeth hurt and my heart race

And the trees start giving out
And they lose their luster
All start falling
The flowers lose their magic
And my bed starts feelin' strange
And the time I spend alone
Becomes the time I use to hate myself
And the thoughts start pourin' out
And I sit here filled with doubt
And the thoughts start pourin' out
And I sit here filled with doubt
