A beautiful woman
Hides under the makeup
She puts on for the tireless camera lens
She came here for vanity
But found something better
The feeling that she could be free
Except as soon as she sees this
She packs up to leave
It doesn't feel how it looks
In twenty years don't remind me
It feels like I'm chasing a comet
While everyone chases me
Give me some time
To figure this out
I don't want to wake up and still
Be myself
Boy comes home crying
At the first day of school
Because it's all too new to be real
Dad says buck up
'Cause crying's not enough
To make all the kids help you fit in
Except he's deep underwater
And he can't hear the screams
It doesn't feel how it looks
In twenty years don't remind me
It feels like I'm chasing a comet
While everyone chases me
Give me some time
To figure this out
I don't want to wake up and still
Be myself
Oh give me some time
To figure this out
I don't want to wake up and still
Be myself
