I’m Not A Kid Anymore

Lyrics by Christina Meyer

Music by John Downing ©

Verse 1

Saw my kids playing just the other day

So young and care free

Started remembering the good old days

When the kid playing was me

Now I’ve traded childhood for responsibility

Just doesn’t seem fair to me

Chorus

I miss recess and nap time

And playing with my toys

What about snow days and summer break

And hanging with the girls

Never having a worry

Wish I could live like before

But I’m not a kid anymore

Verse 2

I remember watching Sesame Street

And Mr. Rogers after school

Now I’m rushing home from work

And thinking what I should cook

It’s amazing how things, they change

Seems like that was just yesterday

Chorus

Bridge

Now I’m working two jobs

Just to make ends meet

And trying to be the best wife

And mom that I can be

Chorus

And I’m not a kid anymore

Never know what you’ve got til it’s gone

Black Hole

Lyrics by Christina Meyer (c)

Verse 1

Initially you were a dream come true

What I had been praying for

It all started with many subtle things

That I chose to ignore

Before I knew it my self-esteem

Just wasn't there anymore

Verse 2

No medicine is strong enough to heal

All the pain I have inside

Only dark clouds come around here

Been ages since the sun has shined

And it seems as though I've lost that spark

My soul is slowly dying

Chorus

You hit, I shove

Guess I just wasn't strong enough

You push, I pull

But I couldn't get away from you

You scream, I run

But I just wasn't fast enough

Can't escape this black hole

4 walls, No bars

But I can't free my captive heart

Can't escape this black hole

Bridge

There's no light at the end of the tunnel

And there's no one to rescue me

No matter how hard I struggle

I just can't seem to break free

Repeat chorus
