Growing Pains

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Trying to change your mind is like the weather

And you don't make my heart beat like you used to

I've been waiting for a sign

You've been saving all your lines

We could save each other for the better

And when you say my name, I'll be a memory

This is more than we had planned

Choice is taken from our hands

Finally there’s space to stand alone

My mind is a runaway

And I find it’s too hard to breathe

Just say what you want to say

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

I feel these growing pains

Have made us far too strong

We’ll change if you want to change

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

You could lose yourself and search forever

Looking for the person that you'll never be

We’ve been trying to compensate

Time to learn from our mistakes

Maybe one day we’ll fit back together

I’ll pick up the pieces and we’ll rearrange

Now we need to follow fate

Now we look the other way

Now we find the strength to stand alone

My mind is a runaway

And I find it’s too hard to breathe

Just say what you want to say

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

I feel these growing pains

Have made us far too strong

We’ll change if you want to change

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

We’ve been changing into something more

Familiar faces turning into stone

These growing pains have made us far too strong

We move along

We move along

I find it’s too hard to breathe

Say what you want to say

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

My mind is a runaway

And I find it’s too hard to breathe

Just say what you want to say

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

I feel these growing pains

Have made us far too strong

We’ll change if you want to change

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

My mind is a runaway

And I find it’s too hard to breathe

Just say what you want to say

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?

I feel these growing pains

Have made us far too strong

We’ll change if you want to change

Are you there?

Tell me, are you there?
