When I was young
All I wanted
Was to be mysterious
To hide myself
Inside my head
And always act so serious
I wanted to be shy
I wanted to get high
But I wasn't
And I didn't
Except for a couple of times
When I was young
I didn't see it
A couple of times I even tried to flee
I hid myself
Inside my head
And I was someone else instead
I wanted to be careless
I wanted to be weightless
But I wasn't
And you know,
You know that I ain't
People used to tell me still water was the deepest
I used to hope I'd lose my tongue
But know I'm older and I know better
And now I know that they were wrong
And now I wanna live
With everything that I've got
Cause everything I've got I have to give
And what I give I get in return
I wanted to get high
I wanted to be shy
Be weightless
But I wasn't and you know
You know that I ain't
And now I know that I ain't
