mia stegner – cave lyrics
when i was little i thought money wasn’t stressful
i thought i’d always have the same favorite color, and favorite book
when i was little i thought i’d never want to wear makeup
or do my hair or give a care about the way i look
when i was little i thought politics were just about the government
not human rights or climate change
when i was little i thought everyone was kind
i thought my parents would always stay the same age
i was in the cave and now i’m standing in the light
sure this world is big, but it is warm and it is bright
you may find it blinding, but we’ll try to bring you anyway
you will see tomorrow or the next day, if not today
when i was little i was taught that everyone was equal
if only that were true, maybe this world wouldn’t seem so blue
when i was little i was taught that everyone was equal
i wish instead i’d been taught about what to do
i was in the cave and now i’m standing in the light
sure this world is big, but it is warm and it is bright
you may find it blinding, but we’ll try to bring you anyway
you will see tomorrow or the next day, if not today
when i was little i thought there were only girls and boys
i thought lunch would always be packed by my father or my mother
when i was little i thought ketchup was only spelled one way
i thought i’d always live in the same house as my brothers
when i was little i thought eight thirty would always be my bedtime
(i thought the world wouldn’t really change much in my lifetime.)
when i was little i thought i wasn’t at all interested in history
(i thought the itchiness of bug bites was a mystery.)
when i was little i thought my pets would never die & neither would i, neither would you
(i thought best friends for forever meant forever not a year or two.)
when i was little i thought i’d never let my heart be bent
(i thought i didn’t really care who was president.)
when i was little i thought i’d never want to dye my hair blue
(i thought a lot of things that just aren’t true, and i still do.)
maybe i am right and you are wrong or maybe i am wrong and you are right
for every sun i think i see, i’m still stuck in another cave somewhere, hidden from the light
but i will fight, for the lights i think i see
i will fight, and not take flight, from the lights i think i see
i was in the cave and now i’m standing in the light
sure this world is big, but it is warm and it is bright
you may find it blinding, but we’ll try to bring you anyway
you will see tomorrow or the next day, if not today
you were in the cave and now you’re standing in the light
sure that world is big, but it looks warm and it looks bright
i may find it blinding, but please try to bring me anyway
i will see tomorrow or the next day, if not today
