i don't want to grow up
i'm carrying this inside me
was this what you promised me
what binds me to you
you built this between us
protect me from what i want
keep, o my spirit
collecting my sadness
i won't keep what i can't catch
fear and trembling seized me
pieces of me
reaching out to you
please don't look at me
he loves me, he loves me not
i understand now
i don't want to grow up
i'm carrying this inside me
was this what you promised me
what binds me to you
you built this between us
protect me from what i want
keep, o my spirit
collecting my sadness
i won't keep what i can't catch
fear and trembling seized me
pieces of me
reaching out to you
please don't look at me
he loves me, he loves me not
i understand now
