Teenage hopes

I recall teenage hopes
and all the pain behind them
for years on end
over the edge
with no one
to ask for help

Teenage hopes
were so strong
they kept me from
dying young
so many nights
lost in my mind
without a clue
and so easily hurt

Oh, how I wanted
to fly high
oh, how I wanted
to leave it all behind
oh, how I wanted
to kiss and hug

Teenage hopes
that made me stay
things have changed
but the wounds remain
teenage hopes
are still not fulfilled
