Just A Kid — Manic Street Preachers

Afraid of the sun So afraid of the sky Touch it and taste it But don't reach too high

Bewildered by them Then so uncomplicated All these feelings Not fully created

Just a kid amongst the Autumn leaves A kid kicking around with no worries Just a kid searching through the debris Just a kid acting like I used to be Just a kid acting like I used to be

Afraid of the sun So afraid of the sky Touch it and taste it But don't reach too high

Hurting and yearning And yet so carefree Waking and dreaming The world at my feet

Just a kid amongst the Autumn leaves A kid kicking around with no worries Just a kid searching through the debris Just a kid acting like I used to be Just a kid acting like I used to be

Just a kid amongst the Autumn leaves A kid kicking around with no worries Just a kid searching through the debris Just a kid acting like I used to be Just a kid acting like I used to be

Just a kid just a man and a boy Just a moment that time will destroy
