Seeing Through New Eyes
This a a hard one, it stems from having had an "episode" with "voices", but once gone and I went outside, it was like heaven, like seeing everything for the first time, and reminded me of my youth.
I honestly believe there is still a kid inside all of us. If I was Tom Hanks (I wish) in the movie BIG he could not contain the boy inside, he HAD to hope those keys on the foot piano, but I'm telling you right now, though technically he was a kid in a big body, I would play the heck out of that foot piano, or whatever it is called.

Chorus
We grow up, we forget
We're told that is the way
There's a child inside that just wants to play
My adult self asks "would people thinks its okay
I was a shut in, I was filled with fear
I never went outside, they kept talking in my ear
But when the vile voices stopped
Still in disbelief, should I venture out
I decided on stroll when the rain stopped
Everything looked the same, but the colors popped
I was walking slowly, breathing deeply, something the air
More than that, the day itself, almost like an answered prayer
I saw the river, saw the leaves, the trees
The grass, the people, their smiles, the bees
I do not how to say this part
I just know I felt it in my heart
And my eyes were open
My ears could hear
My being was one with all that was around me
And I felt no fear
I saw some kids, playing on some sand
One boy was trying to fill a bottle with his hand
"Hey, I used to did that" I recalled
When I was only about three or four
I'll never ever forget that day
Not even the bug on the grass that the breeze swayed away
Seeing the world through a kids eyes
It deepened my belief in everything that goes around
