• This is my life

    The keys of the keyboard
    Feel so natural anymore
    So easy to type out secrets
    Faster than they can be said
    It is a beautiful thing, the sound
    The feeling of my fingers
    Flying

    This is my life

    The feeling of skin on skin
    The sound of breathing, fast
    The ecstasy, and then
    The feel of his hand in mine
    and hearing his heart beat
    Slowing, slowing
    In his chest, and knowing
    That this is for me, my treasure
    Because he says he'll love me forever
    Despite being so young...
    Maybe I hope too much

    This is my life

    The pressure
    It never stops
    "Do the dishes, do them my way
    Fold the laundry, put it away
    Ohh, the floor needs swept again
    Cuz you missed the spot over there
    You're such a princess,
    So selfish and proud
    Dishes have to be done twice
    Once when you get home
    And right after dinner
    And go ride a bike
    Cuz you're getting pudgy"
    I don't think the man wants me to leave
    Cuz who would he mentally punch then?
    I just suck it up, stay strong, deal with it
    He's going to be in shock when I'm gone

    This is my life

    The snow slowly melts
    And drips down, down
    And now there's a waterfall
    Frozen in time
    Right outside my window
    Always temporarily...

    This is my life

    Soon, so soon
    I will be gone, away
    My dream for the past three years
    To be out and free and
    No longer responsible
    For anyone but me
    Cuz I can't take it anymore

    This is my life
    And I wish I could pick and choose
