Dirty dishes and drip, drip
I still leave faucets all broken like this
Wanna crawl into my mother’s bed
I’m older
Still, I feel like a kid
Never needed these new dresses
I would show up at every party reckless
Never needed your money to have a good time
That’s the way we were as kids

I’m changing
Can’t complain
But the hard times had good times that
Can’t compare
It’s different, but that kid is always here

I was a wild one in survival
I made my body my sole rival
I’m off the drugs and self-hatred
Somethings are
Better left with kid

Fault lines
In my mind
Blur time
Make it seem like it wasn’t so hellish
Damn, I was a brave ass kid

I’m changing
Can’t complain
But the hard times had good times that can’t compare
It’s different, but that kid is always here
