Larvae (Part 1)

I am a walking fetus, worm-like crawling alone Its sad, because as a baby I've yet found a place to call ''home'' Ouch, my stomach is grumbling, from the ever-lasting hunger Mommy, Daddy, where are you is all I ever wonder Is this how life goes, I'm struggling day-to-day to live I shouldn't be feeling like this, I'm a larvae, a kid It's winter and its cold, I feel walked on like the green mold This time of the year I should have someone to hold Not to mention the ruthless autumn that just passed I was trapped under endless leaves and feeling like I'm masked Spring, I never saw, maybe I'll live to see the next one If I'm able I would go downtown and sight-seer near the lake-front Summer was a bummer, every single day its hot and humid I'm the prey of the birds, to crawl around do I look stupid If something is going to happen with my life it has to happen now I will not sink beneath my anguish but battle on is what i vow I'm getting tired of almost being stepped on and ran over As soon as I get my chance at it, this world I will take over Then I start to fell helpless like now, It wasn't meant to be Thats when an agonizing pain starts to bind all over me What is going on, I'm paralyzed, I can't move any of my tiny little feet Ohh great, now I have a set of headlights coming toward me I'm looking in fear of being crushed by what seems to be a cadillac Then the universe spins me around and my whole world turns black...
