Growing

Call off all the arms
Time to lay your head back down
‘Cause I’ve been runnin’ for
The line between what’s lost and found
Tried to climb inside my head
Put the pieces back again
Sleepin’ behind the wheel, we’re drifting off the edge

What are we supposed to do
When it comes to living fast and getting through

‘Cause time will pass before we blink
Sat in silent rooms then pour another drink
If this is growing up then I don’t know what to think
But time has come to move ahead
Don’t hold it back just let it be

Another empty face
Just more headlights in the distance
Filling empty space
Of the times they’re reminiscing
Holdin’ back all of my dreams
Tryin’ to point out who I’ll be
Why are they afraid of living till the end

What are we supposed to do
When it comes to living fast and getting through
And I can’t see through my reflection in front of me
Can’t take it back why live a life like we’re asleep

‘Cause time will pass before we blink
Sat in silent rooms then pour another drink
If this is growing up then I don’t know what to think
But time has come to move ahead
Don’t hold it back just let it be

‘Cause I’m dying alone
I’m finally about to break
And I’m ready to grow
And how long is that gon’ take

Sunken eyed on a tightrope
Left home blindfold on a backroad
Slept in another sunrise
Guess I’ve got a long way left here to go
‘Cause it’s a long haul to what we know
Or at least where we’re heading for
No star is ever out of reach
The higher that we’re heading lookin’ down is steep

Soon enough the leaves will change
Bleedin’ out till the color fades
Movin’ forward nothing stays the same
But I can sleep at night knowing my hand was raised
I hope to a God that I don’t believe in
That I’ll make it one day
So here’s to the life I’m leaving
I’m growing up again
