Cracked lips
Chap stick
It's a quick fix
Like a nervous tick
Check out my eyes
They're so clear
Not red veined
Or insincere
I tried
To recall
A life
Before I lived at all
Being small
A child's bliss
Focused in
I remembered this
I could never reach
What's on the shelf
I was looking
For your help
'Cause I'm just a little boy
Or maybe I'm crazy
Like I fell and cut my self
You walked up and saved me
From hating what I felt
This party's
Grown tired
My invitations worn
Back home on the TV
Frauds sell pieces of their lord
So what's a kid to do
They don't make books on how to choose
The path of least resistance
May be the fastest way to lose
I still try to see
If that road is right for me
No one can tell what I'll find
But I want you by my side
I'm just a little boy
Or maybe I'm crazy
And there's no pill to save the world
We're all just so lazy
But if wisdom is a pearl
We've been misusing her
Oh, strung round a neck her voice cannot be heard
But what am I to do?
I'm just a little boy
Oh maybe I'm crazy
And it's empty on that shelf
It's less than amazing that I'll have to find out for my self
'Cause I'm just a little boy
