Kid I Used to Know - Tori Kelly

Lost in this desert
Feels like a thousand years
Looking for water
Swear there was an ocean here

How do I get back where I came from
When everything has all changed so much
Feeling the pressure now
It's tying my heart down
I'm missing the empty skies of my youth
Every cloud on the ever bright blues
Just want that piece again
But the chaos is closing in

I know
That I can't ever go
Back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that feeling
Something's running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know

Oh-oh

All of these voices
It's hard to tune them out
Yeah-yeah, yeah
I should accept it
Things ain't so simple now
No-no, yeah

I wanna see whatever I want
Not even think about falling in love
Chasing the rainbows
And where did the time go

Yeah I know
That I can't ever go
Back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that feeling
Something's running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know

Yeah-yeah
The kid I used to know
Yeah, yeah-yeah

Oh-oh, back when I

No I can't ever go
Back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that feeling
Something's running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know
I used to know, yeah
The kid I used to know
