So innocent.
Remember when 'GETTING HIGH' meant swinging at the playground?
When 'PROTECTION' meant wearing a helmet.
When the worst thing you could get from BOYS were cooties,
And the worst thing you could get from a GIRL was a cold.
Mom was your hero and Dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth.
Your worst 'ENEMIES' were your siblings.
'RACE ISSUES' were about who ran the fastest.
'WAR' was only a card game.
The only 'DRUG' you knew was cough medicine.
Wearing a skirt didn't mean you were a SLUT.
The only thing you 'SMOKED' were the tires on your bike.
The only thing that would 'HURT YOU' were skinned knees.
The only thing that could be 'BROKEN' were your toys,
And 'GOODBYES' only meant until tomorrow..
Life was so simple and carefree, but what I remember most was wanting to grow up.
And now all I want is to be a kid again.
In my own world,
