Kid Over There

I know that kid over there 
It's me at one point 
He has that same blank stare 
Laughing on the outside 
Crying on the in 
Running in my mind 
Looking for a place to hide 
These shoes look different 
But the rest still remains 
Looking through a glass jar
That is cracked at the bottom
Hey kid don't remember me 
I won't forget the past me
