• growing pains[verse 1] make my way through the motions / I try to ignore it / but home's looking farther the closer I get / don't know why I can't see the end / is it over yet?/ a short leash and a short fuse / don't match / they tell me it ain't that bad / "now, don't you overreact" / so I just hold my breath / don't know why I can't see the sun when young should be fun / [pre-chorus] and I guess the bad can get better / gotta be wrong before it's right / every happy phrase engraved in my mind and I've always been a go-getter/ there's truth in every word I write / but still the growing pains, growing pains / they're keeping me up at night/ [chorus] (hey hey x8) and I can't hide/ 'cause growing pains are keeping me up at night (x2) [verse 2] try to mend what's left / of my content incomprehension / as I take on the stress of the mess that I've made / don't know if i even care for "grown" / if it's just alone / [pre chorus] / [chorus] / [bridge] it's starting to look like / Ms. Know-It-All can't take her own advice / can't find / pieces of my peace of mind / I cry / more than I want to admit but I can't lie / to myself, to anyone / cause phoning it in isn't any fun / can't run / back to my youth the way I want to the days my brother was quicker to fool/ AM radio, not much to do / used monsters as an excuse to lie awake / now the monsters are the ones that I have to face / no band-aids for the growing pains (Alessia Caracciolo, Warren Okay Felder, Andrew Wansel) / © 2018 Alcara Songs/Sony ATV Music Publishing (SOCAN/BMI)//Crow's Tree Publishing (BMI).
