Steemit Open Mic Week 65 Barbies (P!NK Cover)

Steemit Open Mic week 65 entry!!!

I don't listen to a whole lot of "new" music, but someone requested this album for Christmas, and I always kinda had a soft spot for Pink. This song hit home in a few different ways for me. I hope you enjoy it!

Steemit Open Mic 65!

Lyrics:

Another day, another sin
Another day I'm late again
Oh, just like that my money's spent
Where did it all go?

Another night, another heart
Another one leaves in the dark
And I'm searching for my counterpart
Where did they all go?

And I lock every single door
And I look behind me even more
Now turned into someone that I swore
I would never be

I wish I could go back to playing barbies in my room
They never say that you gotta grow up, quite this soon
How fast things change
And now I'm here, and all I wanna do
Is go back to playing barbies in my room

And I see it on my father's face
Another line that comes with age
I know that time will have its way
Where did it all go?

They say that things were simple then
Although I don't remember when
I wanna know what happens next
Where do we all go?

And I lock every single door
And I look behind me even more
And now turned into someone that I swore
I would never be

Oh, I wish I could go back to playing barbies in my room
They never say that you gotta grow up, quite this soon
How fast things change
And now I'm here, and all I wanna do
Is go back to playing barbies in my room

Pink canopies and grass-stained knees
Putting fireflies in a jar
Getting home before it's dark
Scotch-taping posters on my wall
Rolling pixie sticks to smoke
Couldn't wait 'till I was older

And I wish I could go back to playing barbies in my room
They never say that you gotta grow up, quite this soon
How fast things change
But now I'm here, and all I wanna do
Is go back to playing barbies in my room
Back to playing barbies

Oh, I wish that I could go back
I wish that I could go back
I wish that I could go back
Back to playing barbies in my room
