Child's Play

Well I hardly care what they think of me now
been gone for a while I’m lost in the sound
don’t bring me back I’m happy this way
asking my heart if I’ll come out to play
I see life through the eyes of a child
and I let my mind run wild
‘cause sometimes it’s as simple as it seems
and I abandon everything in pursuit of a dream
Well what a relief to finally say it out loud
no longer ashamed that I’m riddled with doubt
they say you only live once and that’s what I believe
so I’ll wear out this guitar with the heart on my sleeve
I see life through the eyes of a child
and I let my mind run wild
‘cause sometimes it’s as simple as it seems
and I abandon everything in pursuit of a dream
If only my name
lives on when I’m gone
a life went to waste
only then can you tell me I’m wrong
