Kid I Used To Know - Tori Kelly

Lost in this desert

Feels like a thousand years

Looking for water

Swear there was an ocean here

How do I get back where I came from

When everything has all changed so much

Feeling the pressure now

It’s tying my heart down

I’m missing the empty skies of my youth

Every cloud on the ever bright blues

Just want that piece again

But the chaos is closing in

I know

That I can’t ever go

Back to the world when life was only

Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own

I keep trying to find that feeling

Something’s running wild

With nothing weighing heavy on my soul

Looking for the kid I used to know

Oh-oh

All of these voices

It’s hard to tune them out

Yeah-yeah, yeah

I should accept it

Things ain’t so simple now

No-no, yeah

I wanna see whatever I want

Not even think about falling in love

Chasing the rainbows

And where did the time go

Yeah I know

That I can’t ever go

Back to the world when life was only

Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own

I keep trying to find that feeling

Something’s running wild

With nothing weighing heavy on my soul

Looking for the kid I used to know

Yeah-yeah

The kid I used to know

Yeah, yeah-yeah

Oh-oh, back when I

No I can’t ever go

Back to the world when life was only

Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own

I keep trying to find that feeling

Something’s running wild

With nothing weighing heavy on my soul

Looking for the kid I used to know

I used to know, yeah

The kid I used to know
