Lyrics
When I was a child
I hid for a while
Under the stairs
I said all my prayers
But when I grew up
My life ran out of luck
Saw everyone having fun
Wish I had a gun
Now, I know
It wasn't supposed to be this way
Wasn't supposed too be
It wasn't suppose to be this way
It wasn't supposed to be
Like This
Like This
When I was young
The world was bathed in sun
I played in the fields
Had no use for a shield
But when I was old
I did what I was told
Saw everyone's fake smile
Knew I was out of style
Now, I know
It wasn't supposed to be this way
It wasn't supposed to be
It wasn't supposed to be this way
It wasn't supposed to be
Like This
Like This
Now, I know
It wasn't supposed to be this way
It wasn't supposed to be
It wasn't supposed to be this way
It wasn't supposed to be
