Oh to be little In a fantasy of your wildest dreams The sky is not the limit When you're innocent to reality Float away on cotton candy clouds To a space like zone where no adults are allowed It's just us now after dark in a room filled with stars You're a dreamer A fairytale believer You see an ocean When I see a river I miss those days Which all feel like a haze So innocent to life The innocence So baby Don't grow up too fast Stay sweet and carefree to all that goes past You're perfect the way you are That innocent, authentic place from your heart So baby Stay young for longer Each day, every minute you're getting stronger You help me think and you help me see In this world of dark you're the light for me And I just can't wait to meet who you're gonna be Making mud pies, in a puddle at the park Climbing trees, running loose, some spotlight after dark Your first sleepover, even though you were scared Little tiny things that make no sense for you to fear Taking first steps and learning to speak Nothing in life with you feels bleak Cause you bring colour to a big blank space that I couldn't see You're a dreamer A fairytale believer You see an ocean When I see a river I miss those days Which all feel like a haze So innocent to life The innocence But baby Don't grow up too fast Stay sweet and carefree to all that goes past You're perfect the way you are That innocent, authentic place from your heart So baby Stay young for longer Each day, every minute you're getting stronger You help me think and you help me see In this world of dark you're the light for me But baby Don't grow up too fast Stay sweet and carefree to all that goes past You're perfect the way you are That innocent, authentic place from your heart So baby Stay young for longer Each day, every minute you're getting stronger You help me think and you help me see In this world of dark you're the light for me And I just can't wait to meet who you're gonna be

the broken 02:44
I've been chasing after you all this time Thought we were forever You'd always be mine But you thought different How could I not see? You broke this You're broken I'm broken You broke me A little fish knew no wrong when you hooked me on your line Brought me to the surface with the promise we'll be fine But you had more bait for other girls in this sea I know that You're hopeless I'm hoping I'm free So dig the knife deeper Rip out my heart I fell too hard right from the start Tears stain my cheeks And blood stains the floor I'll be leaving with a brave face till I walk out your door We're over I'm over it So over this I'm sure Can't believe I let you be my first love I was blind in seeing life with you could be enough What happened to the person who filled me with glee? You broke this You're broken I'm broken You broke me Now days feel like months as time slows down Tryna figure out how to live my life without you around I wonder if I'd go back to you If you begged on your knees? We're broken You're broken I'm broken You broke me I know that You're hopeless I'm hoping I'm free So dig the knife deeper Rip out my heart I fell too hard right from the start Tears stain my cheeks And blood stains the floor I'll be leaving with a brave face till I walk out your door I'm broken but I know that I deserve more

Finding myself is harder than I thought Who am I? And what am I here for? Letting all these people tell who me I should be But fuck em If they're no help they can pack up their shit and leave I was broken but I picked up the pieces Without anyone here, by my side I know love is not the only thing that I need So it's time to go into the real world To find The real me The real me The real me The real me The real me Where she at? I wanna know where I'm at Go into the real world The real real world To find the real me The real real me The independence is flourishing And I'll probably have some fun along the way Might kiss a boy or two Date a nice girl Go to the clubs and drink until the lights swirl Around in colours Go home with someone new Wake up feeling like shit but then repeat for night two I'll pay my rent And shit talk about this economy Fuck getting a car since I live in the city The grocery prices are getting way too damn high Guess it's time to live off instant noodles in this broke student life Feeling kinda homesick might face time my mum Rant about all the things in adult life that just ain't fun I know love is not the only thing that I need So it's time to go into the real world Open up and find the real me The real me The real me The real me The real me I'm a bad bitch Know what I want Learnt from life Learnt from love Now it's time To spread my wings On my own On my own I'm a bad bitch Know what I want Learnt from life Learnt from love Now it's time To spread my wings On my own To try new things Yeah Might go on a date with someone I don't care about But getting outside they say might be good for my mental health I study in class but procrastinate on course readings Then hit the gym after another long ass work meeting I found pride in thrifting and buying new furniture I've noticed Things I do show I'm turning into my mother I know love is not the only thing that I need So it's time to go into the real world To open up and find me The real me The real me Where she at? I wanna know where I'm at Going to the real world The real real world To find the real me The real real me I'm a bad bitch Know what I want Learnt from life Learnt from love Now it's time To spread my wings On my own On my own I'm a bad bitch Know what I want Learnt from life Learnt from love Now it's time To spread my wings On my own To try new things I'm a bad bitch Know what I want Learnt from life Learnt from love Now it's time To spread my wings On my own I'm doing good on my own I'm a bad bitch Know what I want Learnt from life Learnt from love Now it's time To spread my wings On my own To try new things Yeah

Things come together And they fall apart But nothing could break my heart Days blur like watercolour Thin wash on life I just take one day at a time I'm stuck in routines But I don't mind They're nothing special, and I'm fine Spend nights with family Spend days at my job With them I'm content with not a lot Oh Oh Watch as my life goes right Watch as everything I built meets the light Everyone with me tonight Having everyone I care for unite But people get old People get sick But we're strong, we'll get through it More time spent with those Who are in pain Feels like life washed all the colour away Bliss finally returns A precious sight Can finally sit back and enjoy my time But fate is evil It has no care It's just a trouble to install fear Watch as my life burns down Watch as everything I built hits the ground Everyone in for themselves Losing everyone I cared about About About

the storm 01:51
Ripped from me Say goodbye Say goodbye Ripped from me Say goodbye Say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Say goodbye The earth has been uplifted Underneath my feet Losing my mind Lost track of time Swept up and thrown around Crumbled to my knees Losing my mind Lost track of time The earth has been uplifted Underneath my feet Losing my mind Lost track of time Swept up and thrown around Crumbled to my knees Losing my mind Lost track of Time isn't

the loss 02:59
Every now and then I think of you Empty spaces when you left become whole again Until I think of you And that uncomfortable feeling washes over me quick again Some days are better than others And they appear more as time passes on But I'll wake up one day with tears on my face Flowing down from my eyes cause I dreamt of you Again last night If only time had been kind to us Everyday I find myself more and more like you All the things I love right now I have realised they seem to be all the things that you loved too I'll see someone in the streets And from behind they kinda look like you I'll continue my days, move on from the pain But nothing will feel the same, empty space in your place Remains I see you in the coffee that I drink I hear you when someone else starts to speak I feel you when I'm lost in the cracks I want you back but you'll never come back I see you in the clouds that drift on by I hear you in the low hum of city night I feel you when I'm at an all time low or high I want you back but you'll never come back to me In this life Life, life, life, life This life Life, life, life, life You'll never come back to life

the peace 02:10
We all come together in the end And I'm not scared to find What awaits me at the end of this life At the end of my time I've been loved and given love I've had hate, I've felt it all There's nothing I regret at this point now Cause when I look back it's all seems so small My family is here, watching tv Every now and then I see them look back at me I give a warm smile, to try comfort them When I look at the clock it's 20 past ten In comfort I lay, on a soft cushioned bed As memories flash by, just thoughts in my head I've had my fair share and I'm ready to go The time is right and the light ahead is so
