Kindergarten - Monica Bubello (Original Song + LYRICS)
Показать описание
Even though this is an amateur demo recording in a makeshift bedroom studio, I'm very proud of this song.
I wrote "Kindergarten" a week after the Ariana Grande Manchester bombing in May of 2017. Though this was a very tragic event, it inspired me to write about my first memory of a terrorist attack, which was of course September 11th, 2001...when I was in kindergarten. While my 5-year old brain didn't fully understand what was actually going on, I knew that something was wrong. I hope that this song reminds you to stay close to the ones that you love.

LYRICS:
I remember as if it was yesterday. It’s been a long, long time, but I still can picture her face.
There were tears steaming, her heart was breaking and I just couldn’t understand why.
Why was she shaking? My brain couldn’t figure it out at the time.
And then the lunch man came in to bring us milk. And I saw that his expression matched the same thing that she felt.
He flicked on the TV. And there was screaming, and I just couldn’t understand why.
There was a tower burning and smoke was filling up the skies.
And I was far too young to even get it.
And I was far too young to comprehend.
And I don’t get why this even happened.
But my first heartbreak was in kindergarten.
One by one, my classmates left the room. But school had just started, so I was so confused.
Why were they leaving? Didn’t they want to stay and learn?
But then I noticed that there was no sign of their return.
And I was far too young to even get it.
And I was far too young to comprehend.
And I don’t get why this even happened.
But my first heartbreak was in kindergarten.
When I finally got home, my mom scooped me in her arms
And she held me real close, with tears in her eyes
She said, “No matter what, I love you to the end
And keep your family close, and all your friends.”
And now I’m older, I’ve aged and now I’m wise.
And now I know why smoke filled those skies.
But we must remember those words my mom once said:
“Keep your family close, and all your friends.”
And now I’m not too young to even get it.
And now I’m not too young to comprehend.
And now I still don’t get why all this happens.
But my first heartbreak was in kindergarten.
