[Verse 1]
Well I never lived through the great depression
Sometimes I feel as though I did
And I don't have answers for every single question
But that's OK 'cos I'm just a kid

Well I've seen pictures of my mother
When she looked exactly like me
And I've seen all my friends running for cover
Running from something they can't see

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's not easy to get a handle on my life
But I have tried it time and time again

[Chorus]
But I still cry just like a baby
And I answer back to feel a little free
And I still fly even though I'm gonna fall
But I'm too far gone to let it get to me

[Verse 2]
Well I'm not much like my generation
Their music only hurts my ears
And I don't hide my pain to save my reputation
It's too hard to keep up with these years
[Pre-Chorus]
And it's not easy to make a habit disappear
But I have tried it time and time again

[Chorus]
But I still cry just like a baby
And I answer back to feel a little free
And I still fly even though I'm gonna fall
But I'm too far gone to let it get to me

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's not easy to get a handle on my life
But I have tried it time and time again

[Chorus]
But I still cry just like a baby
And I answer back to feel a little free
And I still fly even though I'm gonna fall
But I'm too far gone to let it get to me
I won't let it get to me
