MEGA CITY FOUR : Awkward Kid single

Awkward Kid

I hoped I'd grow up to be cool,
just like the heroes in my school,
never was a bigger fool.
Sixteen came and went,
nothing was different.
Important lessons passed me by.
Well it seemed that all my friends knew more,
but how I never knew for sure.
Always last to get the punchline,
left alone to think at lunchtime.
I shut my mouth and prayed,
that I would get it sometime.
Deep down I'm still an awkward kid,
I'm not half the man I thought that
I'd grow up to be,
I never solved the mystery.
I thought I'd find out more,
but I'm as lost as I ever was before.
I'm as lost as I ever was before.
Look a little harder,
there's less than I can tell,
you may think that I'm smarter,
but I've learned to act as well.
In fact I'm lying, I just play a bit,
maybe one day I'll be really good at it.


Cradle

Please don't let me go,
When I need you most,
now I'm hardly able
to stay in my cradle.
No I won't let go,
I'll be here all the time,
must you act like a baby,
need assurance all the time?
No I'll never let you go.
Please don't laugh at me,
that's some analogy.
I'm being serious,
don't you care about us?
I don't think I can hold on
If we are apart,
I'll fall out of my cradle
and into the dark.
So I won't let you go,
I'll be here all the time,
yes you act like a baby,
need assurance all the time.
So I'll never let it go,
no I'll never let you go.
