When I Was Young: from the Truth Volume 1: Track 5
When I was younger,
I hid behind angsty music.
Sometimes it just felt better
to blend in.
I figured that
when I got older,
I’d figure everything out.
Now,
I’m hiding my angst
In order to be
the me I think I should be.
We should grow calmer in age;
I don’t know if I am.
A fire is raging inside of me.
It’s hard to be who you really are
When you’re scared by expectations
of who you think you should be.
I know less than I knew back then,
and I still haven’t figured anything out.
