I act like a child because I choose to.
I act like a child because I don't want to face up to reality.
I act like a child because I've had my innocence stripped from me.
I act like a child because I want to feel like a kid again if I ever did feel like that.

I act clingy because I choose to.
I act clingy because I've had so few that truly cared about me and how I felt.
I act clingy because my only friends were the sun and moon when I was little.
I act clingy because I wish so hard that someone actually would like to be close to me.

I act like I do because I choose to.
I act like I do because that is what makes me stay sane.
I act like I do because I am human and I make mistakes.
I act like I do because I choose to be me and be the best me there ever was.
