lirik lagu sally ann triplett & national theatre - when i was young

suddenly the time is here
my body paralysed with fear
suddenly i feel so small
still a child after all
my heart hasn’t beaten this fast
since the day i saw her last

i remember that morning with my best friend
singing silly songs and laughing by the lake
i remember us feeling that summer wouldn’t end
not knowing yet how hard a heart could break

then suddenly a monster came
eyes ablaze with purple flame
i tried to grab my friend and flee
but she was far too fast for me
shе took my friend
she took my thumb
leaving mе frozen and numb

i ran back through the brambles
clutching my dear friend
till i got home and fell down on my knees
and i cried so long
i thought my tears would never end
as i told everyone the things i’d seen
but they never believed me
they thought it was all lies
and they almost made me doubt
what i had seen with my own eyes

and for eighty years
i’ve lived in fear
never letting anyone near

and now there’s a child deep inside of me
frightened and helpless and alone
every day i’ve tried to hide from her
by turning my heart into stone

there’s a life i might have lived
there are songs that i might have sung
but the monster took all that away
when i was young

all these lonely years
running around
tracking them down day and night
never time for tears
the spell was cast
she grew up fast, ready to fight
and if that girl was here
she wouldn’t wait or hesitate
she’d already be on her way
i know what she’d say:
“the monster dies today”

yes, there’s a child deep inside of me
she’s fearless, relentless, and brave
every day i [?] myself from her
mine was the life that she saved

there’s a fire that burns within me
there are battle cries not yet sung
because i was born that day when i was young
yes, i was born that day when i was young
