Lyrics
Growing Up
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.
I thought that i could fit your mold
That i could muster up some self control
I got lost some where between
Who i am and what you expect of me
And i could be alive and barely living
But i'd rather take a risk that's worth remembering
'cause i could find a million reasons
Why i won't go on deceiving myself
Life's short and i don't want to be
Too afraid to fall asleep
If growing up is just because
That's what they think it takes to be "someone
I'd rather be myself
Time is never on my side
I've got a lot to give
But i won't give my life
I don't expect to blend in with
A world that's so caught up with this
Fitting in" with everyone
You lose yourself and when you're done
It all comes caving in
You're covered up in what you could have been
Sinking in solitude
And they'll all forget you
As for myself, i'm sure
I could figure it out on my own
If growing up is just because
That's what they think it takes to be someone
I'd rather be myself
Time is never on my side
I've got a lot to give
But i won't give my life
And i am not the only one
I'm gonna give my all
And i know that i will fly
But, not before i fall
I will never be ashamed of who i am
