 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Thirteen at a church party
That wasn't mine
Back when there was no significance
To the exit signs
It's a death sentence
In middle america
But only six years
Later my mom said
She loved the song I wrote about
The girl in the lemonade line

Sixteen in tear-stained pajamas
Those YouTube videos
Didn't have the answers
But being a family wouldn't
Have been so hard
If I'd seen the rainbow colors
In my future front yard

Long sleeves bunched
Up in an anxious ball
But now that shirt feels a little small

It doesn't have to be Shakespeare
The tunnel isn't as dark as it appears
Pentameter and prose are just
Terms on a textbook page
And terms are just words
Without the status of a name

I wrote my past on a Rosetta
Stone and went rolling along
Breaking my own heart
To a Conan Gray song
Hyperfixated on Leviticus
Under an apple tree
Isn't great for photosynthesis

It doesn't have to be Shakespeare
The tunnel isn't as dark as it appears
Pentameter and prose
Are just terms on a textbook page
And terms are just words
Without the status of a name

Consonants in the alphabet
Footsteps in the parade
Why scrutinize the pigeonholes
And color wheels
When you could be your
Own brand new shade

I left that shirt in the closet
Where it belongs
'Cause it's never only
One person in the wrong
I don't claim to be a mystic
But my pajama sleeves
Are untwisted now

It doesn't have to be Shakespeare
For there to be a happy ending
All curtains close and chapters end
But the actors go on living
The actors go on living
The actors go on living
Go on living
Go on living
Go on living
