oh thirteen

**Verse 1** In the mirror, I see a stranger, Reflections of dreams, now feeling in danger. Once I was a child, with laughter so free, Now the weight of the world is pressing on me. **Pre-Chorus** Whispers of change in the air tonight, A bittersweet melody, fading light. The toys on the shelf gather dust and regret, As I step into shadows, I’m not ready yet. **Chorus** Oh, thirteen, where did you take my innocence? Caught in the middle, lost in the consequence. The laughter grows quiet, the worries expand, In the sadness of growing up, I’m trying to understand. **Verse 2** Friends start to drift, like leaves in the breeze, Secrets and heartaches, no more childhood ease. Chasing the moments that slip through my hands, Wishing for magic in these grown-up plans. **Pre-Chorus** Whispers of change in the air tonight, A bittersweet melody, fading light. The dreams that we had now feel far away, As I stand on this edge, I’m afraid to stay. **Chorus** Oh, thirteen, where did you take my innocence? Caught in the middle, lost in the consequence. The laughter grows quiet, the worries expand, In the sadness of growing up, I’m trying to understand. **Bridge**
