When you're young, people warn you about the ones who are older than you.
They always tell you to beware the strangers out there that could hurt you too.
The people never warn you about the friends that you have though
the younger kids could hurt you too, but you couldn't have known.

It could be anyone to hurt anyone-
but people don't see it that way.
The age determines who's the victim.
The years say who's the prey.

If you are an adult:
Children can not hurt you.
You can't be their victim.
If you're hurt, it's your fault.

The adult in the room-
is at fault for the pain.
Any harm done to them?
They are the one to blame.

I am the older.
Hurt by the younger.
I can say nothing.
It was a blunder.

He didn't mean to hurt you.
She didn't mean to hurt you.
They don't know better than you.
You'll forgive them, won't you?

It's ok if children cause a little trauma.
You've no right for crying. Stop with all the drama!

You're so pathetic.
Get over yourself.
I know you were a child, but you're an adult now.

You've just turned 18.
They are still children.
If they can hurt you, you're just a weakling.

Don't care if friends tore you apart-
betrayed you or they crushed your heart.

Because you are an adult-
they'll treat you how they want.
If they're misbehaving-
You should just tell them, "Stop."

But if they do not listen to your authority, then you're just a weakling.
So, don't come crying to me.

I still feel like just a child.
The pain still feels the same.
I don't care that they're young.
That won't make it ok.

So now it's all my fault.
My fault they're hurting me.
So now no one will listen.
Because now I'm an adult.
