Childhood fears
I would gladly take back
I would gladly have again
Just take this fear
Take it and go
I want my joy back
I want my happiness back
Just take this fear
Take it and go

The fear of almost adulthood
Catching up to me
Knocking my breath away
Lungs aching
I carry on
As day by day
More fears come
Things keep creeping up
As life surrounds

Childhood pain
I would gladly take back
I would gladly have again
Just take this pain
Take it and go
I want my joy back
I want my happiness back
Just take this pain
Take it and go

Never knowing what's coming next
I turn my back and
I'm hit again from behind
I pick myself up
And dust off my knees
Blood dripping down my back
I wipe it off and carry on
The blows keep coming
The losses surrounding

Childhood
I would gladly take back
I would gladly have again
Just take this life
Take it and go
I want my joy back
I want my happiness back
Just take this pain
Take it and go
