Piggyback ride
Can I have a piggyback ride?
Please I need you on my side
Now I know it's a strange request
And your staring me down thinking it's a test
Seriously I've never had one before
Ive given them to people and watched them soar
But when it came to my turn
No one showed concern
I feel like I carried it on from my childhood
And I never spoke on it because everyone just misunderstood
They said I was to old for such things
But I never once felt like I had wings
I've been on the ground for to long
And down here I have no friends and feel like I don't belong.
And I like to move about and pretend
So I make sure there's not one party I do not attend
Maybe then I might fit in
And feel something for once even if it's on my bearskin
I know you probably can't relate
But can you not look into my eyes and tell me it's to late
I'm old enough to hear a no
It would hurt me but I'm wise enough to not let it show
If time permits
I might be the only one to benefit
But can you have me soar
And don't get angry if I ask for more
I just want my arms to be free
And no one looking down on me
Because right on top you carried me and you promise you'd set me free.
Then worry free I'll be
And I won't feel like the world is changing me
I'd like if you keep this between us
So no can hear what we just disgust
So what do you say to my strange request.
Can you give me a piggyback then I'll let you rest.
