lyrics

Young and lost I would say
That my hope grew every day
That someday I'd find a home in you

Angry and blue, I grew older
Making my heart that much colder
Still hoping that someday I'd break through

Now I'm fourteen years old and I'm crying
Because I know every day that I live I am dying
And you know that you're killing me by holding me too tight
And you know that you're bruising me by hoping you were right

Well I may be young and I may be stupid
But at least I'm dumb enough to be kissed by cupid
Because I'd rather have that than have nothing at all
I'd rather have that than my portrait on a wall

And I'm so sorry that I'm not smart enough
And I'm so sorry that I'm not good enough

All I'm asking is for a chance to see
How beautiful people are
And how beautiful the world can be

So old and full of regret
I'll watch kids place their bets
Still wishing that I could have felt more free
