Verse 1

You look so quiet, after all I wish I could be too
You have forgotten every tear that I've cried for you
You never taught me not to give up
You never taught me what is fair 
When I was scared 

Verse 2

You took it all for granted everything you had
You thought that you were lucky but the luck is not enough
You never thought about the future
And now it's late to remember the past
It happened so fast 

Chorus

'Cause I am the child 
I am the child
'Cause I am the child 
I am the child
Tell me that I'm gonna make it
That when I get there I'm gonna be ready
Don't try to hide, tell me it's all right
That everything is fine 'cause I am the child

Verse 3

You used to fear the consequence of being yourself
You didn't want to change and now it's all a shame
You blamed everyone for your mess
And now we all feel this bitterness 
Well now I know it's not fair

Chorus

I am the child 
I am the child
I am the child 
I am the child
Tell me that I'm gonna make it
That when I get there I'm gonna be ready
Don't try to hide, tell me it's all right
That everything is fine 'cause I am the child
