Lost Here

Young and not knowing life
Unable to hold a knife
That's what is like
To not feel life's strike

My shoes size changed
New things feel strange
Some friends stayed the same
Others played the game

Your suppose to go home to careness
Instead you fight over fairness
There's nowhere to turn
The impossible feels like heart burn

I'm lost in this world
Wondering in my bed curled
What difference will be the next day
I'll wait to see and then I'll say
