Everyone tells you,
they're the best years of your life.
The thing they don't tell you,
is they are all full of strife.
From a child to a teen,
in less then a year.
It's a lot to deal with,
you have to grow up fast.
As a child you're free,
as a teen you feel locked up.
A child has no worries,
A teen has a lot.
You learn the meaning of love,
you discover broken hearts.
The worries of being accepted,
are the hardest part of all.
What's the 'best'
about these years.
When as a teen,
you live in fear.
