Growing Pains

[Verse]
My skin feels tight it pulls me in
A stranger’s face where mine had been
Mirror cracks but I don’t break
How much can a heart remake
[Prechorus]
I’m running in shoes too big for my feet
Skipping the years I wanted to keep
[Chorus]
Growing pains they stretch and tear
I’m too young to feel this wear
Can’t go back can’t stay still
Climbing up against my will
Growing pains don’t ask don’t care
[Verse 2]
Birthday candles melt too fast
Wishing wells can’t hold the past
Childhood whispers fade to grey
What did I lose along the way
[Prechorus]
I’m wearing the weight of things I don’t know
Chasing a life that won’t let me grow
[Chorus]
Growing pains they stretch and tear
I’m too young to feel this wear
Can’t go back can’t stay still
Climbing up against my will
Growing pains don’t ask don’t care
