As the years go by
More memories are made
As we grow and mature
Old interests just fade away
Our freedom becomes less and less
As more responsibility gets lugged onto our shoulders
We demand and want
But forget to need
You tell us to live life how we want it
But how can we do that when you make us feel so restricted
You say I should do this
You say I should do that
But what’s the point of trying if you always want something more out of it
I try something just for fun
Yet you push my happiness down the drain
You urge me to get something out of thin air
You say you understand
You say I should have gotten it first
But do you really care
On what I have to say
Because if you really did care
Then you wouldn’t tell me what I should do
