Dear Parents

Sixteen, lot on her mindGot a few friends, left the rest behindBut I guess that's just what happensPeople changeStressed out but it's always fineThey be asking but she can't describeMaybe they're rightIt'll all be fixed with ageHate that you've been saying I'm dramaticImmature, because I just don't wanna talkYou ever think that you might be overreacting?Promise I'm thinking, overthinking quite a lotThey say we're crazy and uselessMaking stupid excusesTo go make bad decisions when we're hurtAnd we're not crazy romanticsBut we still know what a heart isAnd know that when it's cracked, it really burnsOh, we know more than what we tell youBut can't always put into wordsAnd we don't cry because we want toBut you'll assume it's becauseShe's another sixteen year old girlHighschool's been a terrifying oneShe thinks she won't ever find someoneTo build her back when she's in piecesAnd pieces againLet's not forget about all theOnes who go and run their mouthsJust to stay relevant and not miss outHate that you've been saying I'm dramaticImmature, because I just don't wanna talkYou ever think that you might be overreacting?Promise I'm thinking, overthinking quite a lotThey say we're crazy and uselessMaking stupid excusesTo go make bad decisions when we're hurtAnd we're not crazy romanticsBut we still know what a heart isAnd know that when it's cracked, it really burnsOh, we know more than what we tell youBut can't always put into wordsAnd we don't cry because we want toBut you'll assume it's becauseShe's another sixteen year old girl
