Sometimes someone should tell us
these are the best years of our lives
before we've left them.
Before laughter turns to tears
and your world feels like
it's falling apart.
Ya know, give us a chance
to prepare ourselves
for the ones we hold dear
to become strangers.
For us to accustom to the fact that
everything that felt so right
is suddenly so wrong.
Your life changes forever
never the same again.
