Wide-eyed and terrified (From a child's perspective)
by Aaron Michaellife is bound to what i know.
so if knowledge makes me powerful,
i feel like a child in a world of giants.
wide-eyed and terrified,
as i'm looking for parents in a disneyland crowd.
somewhere there is hope for me, and
they lie in familiarity,
comfort, and home,
they lie in familiarity.
somewhere there is hope for me, and
as i'm looking for parents in a disneyland crowd,
wide-eyed, and terrified,
i feel like a child in a world of giants.
so if knowledge makes me powerful,
life is bound to what i know. 03/27/2006 Posted on 03/27/2006
