Big Brother
When we were kids Neither of us could've known All the ways you'd change and all the ways you'd grow
Poetry for people who could use a little kindness
When we were kids Neither of us could've known All the ways you'd change and all the ways you'd grow
When you're different people don't see a person They see entertainment A walking punch line
Life didn’t go as planned Though you thought it all in hand Even though your plans fell through There’s nothing wrong with you
I try to get in I try to push past the walls keeping me stuck in the supporting cast
A weight has fallen on my mind Strapped in, stopping me thinking I want to write joyous, uplifting words But sometimes, I simply can't
Bringing me comfort when I most need it Soft and warm, shielding me from a world so cold My eternal friends, always there You never judge, you never scold
I used to think that on one bright day all of my misery would simply go away
It's been so long I thought I was okay To go it alone But it wasn't okay
Up and down Side to side Life can be quite the ride
I know what it's like to feel like you don't belong To feel like you're the only one who doesn't know the words to the song
