Trenton Burton - Twelve

[Verse 1]
I talk
He writes
Telling me what's right for me
The chairs
His stare
The only options left for me

[Verse 2]
My mom
Beside
Telling him the things she's seen
I pull
My hair
Wanting to hear what they mean
[Verse 3]
He says
"Don't fret
I'll tell you how to deal with it
Give it
A name
Something you've always hated

[Verse 4]
Then use
Its name
And tell it you won't be its pet
One boy
Hated mushrooms
So you should think of something like that"

[Verse 5]
Why label
It?
It does not deserve a name
It's nothing
To me
Nothing is what it will remain

[Pre-Chorus]
Not mushroom, no
Won't watch it grow
I'll bury it in the ground
Away from view
Away from you
But it grew safe and sound
[Chorus]
It grew
It grew
Away from view
Away from you
It grew
It grew
Deep within me
And towards you

[Chorus]
It grew
It grew
Away from view
Away from you
It grew
It grew
Deep within me
And towards you
