Oh, that fucking innocent kid

Current Mood: Contemplative
Current Song: I have a dream, Westlife's version
Current Read: The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold

O, I was once that fucking ambitious kid.
With big dreams, high hopes, and lovely wishes.

I want to be a high tech farmer,
That's when I was taking my O's.
I want to open an aquaculture farm,
That's when I was taking my O's.

Oh, was that me?
Oh, was that me?
Yeah, that was me.
Yeah, that was me.

I want to be a cafe owner,
That's when I was graduating from poly.
I want to study coffee in Italy,
That's when I was graduating from poly.

Oh, was that me?
Oh, was that me?
Yeah, that was me.
Yeah, that was me.

...

O, I was once that fucking studious kid.
With big dreams, high hopes, and lovely wishes.

Six months time from now,
I'll be graduating,
Whether I like it not.
Four months time thereafter,
NSF in that green uniform will be my status,
Whether I like it not.

And when everything's over,
I will be a goner.
Cause I can't see my future ahead.
And when everything's over,
I will be a goner,
Cause I dunno what I want in life.

...

O, I was once that fucking optimistic kid.
With big dreams, high hopes, and lovely wishes.

I shall continue with school, shall I?
That Master in Molecular Biosciences in Germany?
That Master in Applied Medical Biotechnology in Sweden?
I want to continue with school, can I?

I shall step into the workforce, shall I?
Be that researcher who work till the day I die in some laboratories?
Be that clinical trial associate who travel around?
I don't want to step into the workforce, can I?

...

I was once that fucking ambitious kid.
I was once that fucking studious kid.
I was once that fucking optimistic kid.
With big dreams, high hopes, and lovely wishes.

I was that fucking innocent kid.
I was that innocent kid.
I was that kid.
With big dreams, high hopes, and lovely wishes.

...

And now, I'm no longer that kid.
Cause I no longer have big dreams.
Cause I no longer have high hopes.
Cause I no longer have lovely wishes.

And now, I'm no longer that kid.
Cause life fucks me up.
Cause reality fucks me hard.
Cause I was fucked.
