I Was Never Young letra

I was never young even as a child,
I was never young, I always felt beguiled,
No, I just never smiled,
But you, you have a glow, glow from an innocence I'll never know.

'Cause I was never young even as a boy,
No, I was never young, kindness seemed a ploy to temper or alloy,
But you, you have a mind full of a wonderment I'll never find,
'Cause I was never young.

Ever since I was a kid I've been a brutal basket cast,
Ever since I was a kid I've been a brooding basket case.
