Adult

I'm an adult today
my world is upside down
I'm an adult today
and nothing is okay
I'm an adult today
I have no home
I am an adult today
starting on my own
I am an adult today
I've become alone
I am an adult today
just drifting away
detatching from reality
close to taking my life
I am an adult today
walking blindly through the night
