Fourteen and Afraid lyrics

I remember being fourteen in the hallwayNot knowing what the rules were anymoreEveryone seemed fluent in a languageThat nobody ever taught me beforeI looked around for someone who looked lost like meAnd found that everyone was too afraid to seeFourteen and afraidPretending to have figured out the gradeFourteen and afraidBuilding all the walls before the walls were madeI wish I'd known it then what I know nowThat everyone was lost and none of us knew howFourteen and afraidAnd it was okayMy daughter's fourteen now and sometimes I can seeThe same look in her eyes that lived in meThe wanting to belong and wanting to be realThe terrifying size of everything you feelI want to tell her everyone is lost like herBut she'd have to find it out the way we did beforeFourteen and afraidPretending to have figured out the gradeFourteen and afraidBuilding all the walls before the walls were madeI wish I'd known it then what I know nowThat everyone was lost and none of us knew howFourteen and afraidAnd it was okayI love you at fourteen more than you will ever knowI would go back and sit beside you just to showThat the kid who doesn't fit will find their placeAnd the fear you carry now won't leave a traceFourteen and afraidAnd lovedSo lovedEven thenEspecially then
