Unraveling... (Someday Sin)

Can you help me unravel my latest mistake,
and turn back the clock on my someday sin?
Life is giving me a life,
then telling me I can't have it yet;
I was given love and told I'm too young to know it yet.
Can you help me, tell me how it is they can criticize,
how they can think we're too young,
how we're not old enough to be planning the future.
Who are they to say what we have,
who are they to tell me no,
who are they are to say I'm too young?
They did all the same things,
felt all the same feelings and rebelled against all
the same rules.
They were wild in love and just as young,
just as ready,
so who are they to criticize, who are they to tell me no,
that I can't have what they had.
And who are they to be dissapointed,
times have changed since their days,
and life is different now.
But why does this one decision change who I am,
it shouldn't have to,
it shouldn't mean they change their view of me.
But can you stick up for me Mom,
can you tell them I'm still a good person,
I'm me, nothing has changed.
I'm responsible and I've done nothing wrong,
so stick up for me, I know you understand.
You're the only one they'll listen to,
so can you unravel my latest "mistake",
and turn back the clock when I commit this someday "sin."
