GROWING PAINS Lyrics

Think I'm gonna move away

Only dreaming, almost fooled myself

Thought about it anyway

Part of a cycle I know well

You know, I don't believe in premonitions

But I've had this feeling twice before

You know, I don't buy into superstitions

But some things you can't ignore

These are just growing

These are just growing pains

But you won't know it

Til you don't feel the same

Me and Ella in L.A.

I was something gravity don't touch

Felt like it was yesterday,

I don't know if I miss it all that much

I can't pretend like I don't need attention

But that's not what I'm crying for

I don't remember why I need permission

To reap my own rewards

These are just growing

These are just growing pains

But you won't know it

Til you don't feel the same

It may be some time

Til it feels alright

But nobody is Atlas all the time

Can't afford the hell to pay

Had to keep a ledger for myself

Perpetually in disarray

I started catching up on healing I withheld

It's not so bad, a little ache in the chest

I've been with less, for a longer time

I drag my shadow by the scrap of the neck

All the rest I leave behind

These are just growing (growing)

These are just growing pains (growing pains)

But you won't know it

Til you don't feel the same

(And these are just growing pains)

It may be some time

Til it feels alright (these are just growing pains)

But nobody is Atlas all the time
