Can you believe
that at 13 I was depressed

can you believe
that I'm afraid of my past coming back to haunt me

can you believe
that at 14 I was happy

can you believe
that my happiness didn't last long

can you believe 
that I turned to pain as a way out

can you believe
that I turned to music as a way out also

can you believe
that at 15 I fell in love

can you believe
that my first love hurt me deeply

can you believe
that for a brief second I was happy

can you believe
that I was still turning to pain and music as a way out

can you believe
that im still 15 and I'm still afraid of my past

can you believe
that I'm now afraid for my future
