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 dry my eyes
Now I'll crust them with sleep
I'll crust them over
She begged me, "Don't hate me"
She spun me a story
Where winning looks like losing
And I'm winning every time
So thread spools sweetie, get ready
'Til my silk is sold
Growing up
Growing up
Growing up
Yeah
I'll find myself anew
Yeah
I'll find myself anew
I've dried my eyes, now its "Rushmore"
I'm deep with futures like Chicago
No, Glenview never meant a thing to me
She never meant a thing to me
Separate idealists in a body bag
Forget it
I'll go out tonight to piss on her doorstep
And listen to the Misfits, "Where Eagles Dare"
To swallow whole
Up
Growing up
Growing up
Go!
Whoa-oh-oh
I guess I'm my own better half
Whoa-oh-oh
I guess I'm my own better half
Whoa, yeah
I guess I'm on my own
Yeah, yeah
I guess I'm on my own
Yeah
I guess I'm on my own
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I guess I'm on my own
