A.O. Gerber - Just a Child lyrics

There's a song that I wrote once about you
But it's one that I never play
I promised I'd send it and never did
Well, you wouldn't understand all
The words anyways and you'd ask for the
Meaning a million times

Now we're walking the short path
But it's taking an hour still
Reach my hand out to brace you from falling
You meet my eyes and you tell
Me you're not going down
And I know that you're lying
At least to yourself

Sure, you're not going down
You worship freedom and certainty
In the temple you bought yourself
Well, I want freedom for everything living
But you keep begging for me
To please think of myself
And I'd much rather think
About anything else

I'm so sick of myself
Light the candle and watch as
It burns in it's well

I'm so sick of myself and my reasons
And what if we just have the season?

So did I take you for granted
Or was I just as a child is?
Getting trashed at the movie
You brought me to
Roll my eyes at the scene where
You try not to cry and if I take that for
Granted then what am l?
I still hate when you cry
