Life as usual © Copyright George Papavgeris, October 2002 All day you bombard my ears With how you have three times my years Lessons you would try to teach To me, but all you do is preach. I know you have experience But stop beating that drum Just because I'm learning still It doesn't mean I'm dumb; My learning days have just begun. You say black and I say white And nothing that I do is right Angrily you slam the door And my opinions you ignore. Sure, we have our differences, But talk to me, don't shout And if I see things different, Please don't shut me out; That's what being young is all about. Anything I want to do Is just a waste of time to you. With my dreams you disagree You want to plan my life for me. The road that I will travel It isn't yours to call So I will make my own mistakes, I'll stumble and I'll fall; Just life as usual, that's all You despise all my friends You say they'll meet a sorry end. You dread what will become of me But learn to put your trust in me. There's still one thing you have to learn And that is letting go The more you pull, the more I'll push Don't make the distance grow; I love you, but won't let it show You say I'm your prince and heir But even princes need their air. So don't wait half the night for me And with your love don't smother me. Don't despair and pull your hair 'Cause life's not white and black. Just be there when I need you When I go off the track; One day I promise I'll be back |
