Lyrics

So Young

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Little girl sit and cry for what you've done

Did you think it'd work turning your back on someone

That just looking away could save you the stress

Of compensating, to clean this mess

Would take the understanding you dont have

Would it be so demanding of me to ask

To give a little feeling a thought in mind

to share a little feeling while you waste my time

Now little girl thinks that shes through with this

That she can go on living her life in bliss

But luckily Im here to bring

Back the memories of the suffering

They were all caused by your demon lies

And the way you can choose not to sympathise

You look like you think you should care

Instead you'll claim that you were unaware

Of this dire consiquence

Or will it come at my expense

I wont let it go past this

So speak in your defense

Give sympathy a chance

It will not get past this

So now where do you go from here

Can't go forth if your living your life in fear

But don't go if your gonna go it blind

Take a minute just a second to rewind

Realize whatwas your big mitake

Realize how you can no longer fake

All your feelings, What you've come to know

You must learn to reap wat you sew

Or this dire consiquence

Will come at your expence

You've let it grow to this

You've used up your last chance

In Vain defiance

Or had you wanted this?
