Tell me the truth
Did you ever really love me?
Did you ever really see me?
Ya ever really care?
Under all of your affairs

Tell me the truth
Did you ever really open
Your heart to be broken?
Were you just there?
Too scared

Children will be, children will be children
Of adults who are children
Until children set themselves free

Yeah, I was brought back to the hospital
Became an adult too little
Solved both of your riddles
With me in the middle
Trying to be everything I could be for the giving
I was just a child myself, oh well

Children will be, children will be children
Of adults who are children
Until children set themselves free
(You make me feel)

You walk a road
You walk a mile
You walk away
You kill the child
They start to pay
Running wild
Make mistakes
To survive

Got stuff to say
On their minds
It's a new day
To change your life
It's a new way
To shine your light

Say it with me, ugh
It's my life, ugh
Say it again, ooh
It's my life, ooh
Come on, it feels good
It's my life, yeah

Children will be, children will be children
Of adults who are children
Until children set themselves free
