So Small

i used to feel so big and so tall
i could fit the whole wide world in the middle of my palm

i was never so simple, or tossed aside. 
i was happy and i felt alive

i feel so small and so cold
when i'm with you, 
that world swallows me whole. 

and i hold my son and cry 
We used to be in love
i used to be soo big 
i swear i could fly 

And i tell my tiny son, your so big
You hold your own future in your tiny hands

your unstobable
a lesson to be learned don't ever settle for comfortable
