| Once in a while I act like a child | |
| To feel like a kid again | |
| It feels like a prison | |
| In the body you‘re living in | |
| Because everyone?s watching | |
| Greedy to start talking | |
| I’m losing my innocence | |
| Wish I weren‘t a little girl | |
| Who felt the weight of the world | |
| It would be nice to start over again | |
| Before we burn out | |
| I’d give my breath | |
| Let‘s play pretend | |
| Remember the times | |
| We had soda for wine | |
| And got by on gratitude | |
| The worst they could do to you | |
| Was check your attitude | |
| Yeah, when fights were for fun | |
| We had water for guns | |
| And a place we could call our own | |
| How we lost hold of that | |
| I guess I’ll never know | |
| It would be nice to start over again | |
| Before we burn out | |
| I‘d give my breath | |
| Let’s play pretend | |
| And when it‘s the end | |
| Our lives will make sense | |
| And love, even | |
| We won’t have to play pretend |
| Once in a while I act like a child | |
| To feel like a kid again | |
| It feels like a prison | |
| In the body you' re living in | |
| Because everyone? s watching | |
| Greedy to start talking | |
| I' m losing my innocence | |
| Wish I weren' t a little girl | |
| Who felt the weight of the world | |
| It would be nice to start over again | |
| Before we burn out | |
| I' d give my breath | |
| Let' s play pretend | |
| Remember the times | |
| We had soda for wine | |
| And got by on gratitude | |
| The worst they could do to you | |
| Was check your attitude | |
| Yeah, when fights were for fun | |
| We had water for guns | |
| And a place we could call our own | |
| How we lost hold of that | |
| I guess I' ll never know | |
| It would be nice to start over again | |
| Before we burn out | |
| I' d give my breath | |
| Let' s play pretend | |
| And when it' s the end | |
| Our lives will make sense | |
| And love, even | |
| We won' t have to play pretend |
| Once in a while I act like a child | |
