It was eleven years ago

My family gathered round

I was the last one to be told

That things would be much different now

Too young to understand completely

Enough to feel this won't be easy

I want you to know

That I see right through you

Tears running down your cheek

Don't mean a f**king thing to me

I can't imagine that your life was perfect

I never even scratched the surface

But we were only 10 years old

How the f**k was I supposed to know.

Eleven years now on

My family gathers round

And I've never felt so strong

Things are so much different now

Too young to understand completely

21 life's still not easy

Crush everything I thought I knew

Memories of me and you

Rip my heart from my sleeve

Sink it deep inside my chest

Bury me beneath my skin

A stranger to those

Who knew me the best
