I never wanted to grow up,
Because I loved those childish days,
Just running, playing with friends, a lot of laughter,
And nothing more to care about,
No worries that capture the soul.
I never wanted to grow up,
And have always hated birthdays.
I could not see a sense behind them,
And wondered why people would celebrate,
Being another year closer to death.
I never wanted to grow up,
In this world of selfish people,
Where being different is a crime,
Where they make me question my existence,
Where there is no space for me.
I never wanted to grow up,
And have always been so damn afraid of it.
I just never felt like I could make it,
Because there would be so many choices and ways
And I would always pick the wrong ones.
I never wanted to grow up;
Never wanted to live an adult´s life,
Full of so many worries,
Full of so much responsibility,
Full of so many stepping stones.
I never wanted to grow up,
But in life wishes don´t come true.
So here I am, on the verge of adulthood,
School will end, everything will change,
I don´t know how to go and fears are becoming a truth.
I never wanted to grow up,
So let´s refuse,
Let´s escape tonight.
