Lyrics

I don't feel young

Expressing a lack of feeling youthful

I don't feel scared

Not experiencing fear

I'm in control

Feeling in command or having authority

I am prepared

Feeling ready or equipped for something

I'll never cry

Intending not to show emotions by crying

I'll sit and stare

Being in a state of passive observation

I don't feel young

Reiterating the lack of feeling youthful


I don't feel old

Not perceiving oneself as old

I don't feel proud

Not experiencing a sense of pride

I speak too fast

Speaking rapidly or without restraint

I laugh too loud

Laughing in an exaggerated manner

I am the smallest

Feeling insignificant or small compared to others

In the crowd

Reiterating the lack of feeling old

I don't feel old


I can't see you

Unable to physically see someone, but making assumptions

But I can guess

Assuming reactions or actions of someone not present

You gave a speech

Someone delivering a speech and impressing others

They're all impressed

Despite external impressions, the personal space remains messy

But still your room

Is all a mess

-

And so if I

If unable to have someone now, will learn and grow regardless

Can't have you now

Unable to attain someone's presence presently

I'll learn to walk

Willingness to learn fundamental skills

And learn to count

Understanding and evaluating what was received

The lot you gave

Receiving information or experiences

Me in my mouth,

Processing received information

And spit it out.

Expressing rejection or disdain for received things


If you feel young

Acknowledging someone else's feelings of youthfulness

And feel ready

Feeling prepared or equipped for a situation

Or if you feel old

Feeling tired and in need of rest

And just need sleep

Offering assurance of confidentiality

You know your

Secret's safe with me

-

If you feel young

Reiteration of feeling youthful

If you feel young

-

If you feel young
