Don't Ever Let Your Children Grow Up
That was the way, that was the way it was
When you're five years old and don't have nowhere else to run
Except into your mother's arms, where she held you so tight
And you're scared of the dark so
you sleep with your little night light
When you walked up to school and everyone there was your best friend
When you learned your numbers and shapes and played pretend
You didn't mind that your hair was a mess, you were so carefree
You didn't know how cold and cruel this world would one day be
We were just so young
We should have known
We should have known
That one day we'd hate our bodies

and we'd orbit around buttons on a phone
We should have known
That one day we'd pluck our eyebrow hairs
and wonder why the cool kids stared at me
Oh why'd it have to be
Our imaginations have run dry
We hate ourselves and have a nightly cry
And then we act like we're fine
It's alcohol and bombs and drugs, don't ever let your children grow up
