Memories

[Intro]
Things may seem a little hazy
But with me, the world gives me everything
To remember, because I’m highly sensitive
And it’s not for you to see me as any less

[Verse 1]
I always knew that people would try to get to me
But deep inside my heart, there is a place out there
To drift away on purpose, it may be a concern
Sometimes it hurts to always remember
Why don't I tell no one anything?
Paranoia, everyone wants what's "best for me"
Likely, while everyone just sees darkness

[Pre-Chorus]
But I see them all as memories
They're keys to truly define who I am
You may not approve, but you’ll never understand
Truly, it’s not just being a young person

[Chorus]
I feel it all, like memories
Sometimes, they’re not meant to be happy
But it’s too late to not say that, am I too wise?
Just because I’m young, doesn’t mean I’m forever protected
When you want to hold on, to grow is to let it go
Chimerical, but beautiful, it’s always a choice
The more you live, you’ll start to understand
But what if it’s too much? (Will I ever know?)

[Verse 2]
Sometimes anxiety can be a good thing
The real world can hurt you, sorry if you didn’t want to acknowledge it
We’re put in a world, it’s either love or kill
With the way it’s going now, you’ll question “is this even real?”
Wish that I came off as better
The pieces may not fit into your needs
But being outcasted, I grew to love being alone
Just wish people would stop overanalyzing
Me, a person who’s quiet & loud
May not do things the same, learned to not be ashamed
What? You’re gonna diagnose me?
You’re gonna say I’m crazy?
Too late, I’m already a misfit
Are you gonna tell me to quit it?

[Chorus]
I feel it all, like memories
Sometimes, they’re not meant to be happy
But it’s too late to not say that, am I too wise?
Just because I’m young, doesn’t mean I’m forever protected
When you want to hold on, to grow is to let it go
Chimerical, but beautiful, it’s always a choice
The more you live, you’ll start to understand
But what if it’s too much? (Will I ever know?)
