"You know how kids are.
They're completely without worry."

Do you really think that?
I wonder.
How would you know?
Have you been inside a child's mind
To know what they think?

You've been worried so long
Far too long...

You don't understand
That a child knows
When something is wrong.
Children worry too.
But you wouldn't know.

Because you've forgotten
What it's like

To Be A Child

I agree. Adults do forget that we worry too. I really liked the whole thing It was good.

So no more hiding all your pain, you deserve a new start. That's why i'm closing myself away, this is a message from your heart.
