21st Century Child

Maybe, just maybe
I’ve made a mistake about how much I want to be involved
Forgive me, forgive me
I’ve been all over the shop
Searching for a delicate way to say I’m sorry

I know on Monday I’ll probably change my mind
And the only sure thing, is a sure thing’s hard to find

Lately, oh lately
I’ve been thinking about how much I really need my sadness
Lazy, feeling lazy
All these people about
Who seem to already be past it

But I know on Monday I’ll probably change my mind
And the only sure thing, is a sure thing’s hard to find

But I hate the sound of myself when I’m being honest
Sounds like somebody else, and I don’t wanna listen
To the whining's of a 21st century child
And I’ve struggled with how others perceive me
And I can’t tell if I’m better or just better at deceiving
So I’ll keep going, 'til I’m caught out

There’s blood on my sheets, but you know I don’t mind
I’m drawn to the dark things, and you’re a part of the light
