I won't be 15 for much longer...but I know most of these things wont change

I posted this awhile ago, but I edited it some and I like it better now.



--15--







I got stuck feeling the way they told me not to,

I didn’t mean for it to end up this way,

It just ended up this way,

And there’s not much I can say,

I’m just trying to learn from my mistakes,

This life is full of lessons,

And they’ve got to learn to let me clean up my own messes,



(chorus)I’m 15,

And I’m longing for love,

I’m way behind in homework,

But living on fast food well it isn’t that tough,

They say "you're still young"

But I'm stubborn and I've already got my mind made up,

But I’ve got to decide on all these choices

Everybody’s got their hearts set on change,

And all I can hear are there voices,

Myself is something that they’re beginning to change,



There are love stories floating around in my head,

And I’m wishing they were my own,

I’m staring at the phone,

I say I don’t want this,

I don’t need this,

I just want to be me,

And then I see you and forget everything,



(chorus)I’m 15,

And I’m longing for love,

I’m way behind in homework,

But living on fast food well it isn’t that tough,

They say "you're still young"

But I'm stubborn and I've already got my mind made up,

But I’ve got to decide on all these choices

Everybody’s got their hearts set on change,

And all I can hear are there voices,

Myself is something that they’re beginning to change,



Well it took me long enough to realize,

And you didn't stop me like I thought you would,

But we’re 15,

And its time for me to go,

These years may seem slow,

But they’re passing by,

And I don’t need another reason to cry,

Something I guess that you’ve realized,

I’m just not like everybody else,



And I’m 15,

I’m not ready for love,

I’ve had my fill of homework,

And as for fast food well I’ve had enough,

They say "you're growing up"

But my minds all jumbled up,

And I’m starting to hate all these choices,

Even though everybody is longing for change,

I want to silence all there voices,

Myself is not something that I’m willing to change,

Something they've got to realize,

I'm just not like everybody else.
