Look a yourself what you've become
Nothing more than an empty shell
Taking everything for granted
Sometimes it seems like you don't exist
Faking the smile on your face
I know your unhappy but you don't fight it
Is it that you just turned eighteen
Is it that you're leaving this place
You only tell me half the story
But I wonder about the truth
You now are just another example
Of how growing up is killing you

You tell me to grow up
But I don't want to dissappear
Fight for your rights
Don't let life control you
I want to tell you what you've become
But I can't because it's the truth
And I don't want to hurt you
Again it seems you're dissappearing
But you are leaving
So I won't see you
You will dissappear

Again it seems you're dissappearing
But you are leaving
So I won't see you
You will dissappear
From my life
