When I was supposed to play
Life taught me lessons the hard way
When I was supposed to laugh
Life made me suffer on someone else’s behalf
When I was supposed to hear a lullaby
Life made me listen to words that made me cry
When I was supposed to prepare for school tests
Life gave me its syllabus and tests
When I was supposed to go out and gain experience
Life made me sit in silence
When I was supposed to have fun
Life gave me so much pain that I wanted to run

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
