Lyrics

Grow 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 told 'em all where to stick it

I left town with a dime to my name

I said, I'm done with all of my fake friends

Self-righteous pawns in a losing game

Got my band and a light that won't go out

Been burning since the day I was born

So I'll cry just a little, then I'll dry my eyes

'Cause I'm not a little girl no more

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind

Stood in line for so long just to picket

Something I will never understand

Aren't you tired of always being mad at the world?

Won't you just admit you don't care?

And lady, I don't want your pity

So don't feel sad for me

I got a love I would die for and a song to sing

Maybe we're both just living out our dream

And some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind

We get along for the most part

Me and reality, the light in the dark

We live alone, two different worlds

Me in a fantasy, you in your memories

But we get along

We get along (for the most part)

We get along (yeah, for the most part)

We get along (for the most part)

We get along

We get along, we get along

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind (leave you behind)

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind (leave you behind)

Some of us have to grow up sometimes (we grow up and never grow old)

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind

Some of us have to grow up sometimes (we grow up and never grow old)

And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind
