I Was a Kid - Damon Price

I was a kid I didn't know
What was normal inside that home
I stayed quiet I stayed low
I learned early on my own
I learned how to stay small
How to freeze when I heard the walls
How to never ask at all
How to disappear down the hall
I was a kid
I needed someone
I was a kid
Nobody come
I didn't get saved
I didn't get told
I didn't get comfort
I learned control
Now I don't rest I stay alert
Peace feels fake like it could hurt
Every room I count the doors
Every calm feels like before
When someone's close I pull away
I don't believe the words they say
I learned the hard way what to hold
You don't feel warm when you grow cold
I was a kid
I didn't need much
I was a kid
I just needed one
I didn't get saved
I didn't get told
I didn't get comfort
I learned control
I was a kid
Nobody come
Nobody come
