growing pains Lyrics

Gradually the lines all blur

To reveal a bigger picture

And the haziness that once set in

Is sharpening to pricks and pins

It took some time to realise

That the darkness doesn't make me blind

It took some time but I realised

The ache is what keeps us alive

So don't let fear take hold

Don't give it control

Steadily I'm breaking free

Of the chains that once suspended me

Not a hostage anymore

I own myself, of this I'm sure

It's your mind and it's your life

You can do whatever you feel like

It'll take some time but you'll realise

The darkness doesn't make you blind

So don't let fear take hold

Don't give it control

Take pride

In the aches and in the pains

Make time

To acknowledge your mistakes

You're not yet broken

So keep on going

Keep on hoping

It's part of the growing pains

When you can feel it

And when you believe it

Remember this feeling

It's part of the healing

And part of the growing pains

Part of the growing pains

My demons weren't as dark

As I once thought they would be

The monsters under my bed

Were there to protect me

It takes changing perspective

And changing your heart

To see that there's strength

In falling apart

There's something important

In feeling you're not enough

It means that there's still something

Out there that you want

So go on and grab it

Claim it with your heart

And know that no matter what

You still deserve love

Take pride

In the aches and in the pains

Make time

To acknowledge your mistakes

You're not yet broken

So keep on going

Keep on hoping

It's part of the growing pains

When you can feel it

And when you believe it

Remember this feeling

It's part of the healing

And part of the growing pains

Part of the growing pains
