When did my childhood end
My adolescence
Turned to adult lessons
Where did the meadows go
All the cows and colts
Used to freely roam
I don't recognize my face
It looks like me but not the
Same bright eyes that used to shine
Now there's a grief I cannot place
How could a flower bloom
In the arctic womb
While the rest are doomed
Why don't the children play
Dancing in the rain
Of a hurricane
I don't recognize my face
It looks like me but not the
Same bright eyes that used to shine
Now there's a grief I cannot place
Take me back to
Belly laughs till I could hardly breathe
Take me back to evening naps and drifting into dreams
When did my childhood end
My adolescence
Turned to adult lessons
