Awkward Age

Late at night
I can see so clearly
They see right through me

And i know that ten years before
I was the kid at the corner store and i still know
And at that age things are so confusing
And no matter what i tried
I still wound up losing. are things still that confusing?
And at that age, that awkward age
I knew someday that things would change


Have i been thinking too much tonight
When i think of how my life's gone by?
And at that age...
There were things that i never really knew
And i keep hearing my parents say:
"do as i say, don't say as i do."
What could i do?
