Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Heard you moved out of town on the weekend
Understand, but I'm sad that you're leaving
Are you up making friends with the ceiling
Yeah, I know the feeling
[Verse 2]
I wasn't trying to let you down
I was just working my shit out
I'm sorry I didn't know how much I led you on
[Verse 3]
Growing up is weird
Sleep with friends, break a heart
Question everything you thought
Split a pill, smoke a dart
Growing up is weird
Fall in love for a year
And then I disappear
Wish that you were here
[Verse 4]
Growing up is strange
Get too close, push away
Thinking you would do the same
New regrets, new mistakes
Growing up is strange
When the one who's to blame is looking at the mirror
Wish that you were here
Growing up is
[Verse 5]
Get emotional at two in the morning
It's a habit, no, I shouldn't be calling
Then you let me in, is that what you wanted?
Is this what we wanted?
[Verse 6]
Now you're back in your town
No, I can't come around
Are we better without
The what ifs and doubts?
Is this it?
Are we both too far gone to forget and try again?
[Verse 7]
Growing up is weird
Sleep with friends, break a heart
Question everything you thought
Split a pill, smoke a dart
Growing up is weird
Fall in love for a year
And then I disappear
Wish that you were here
[Verse 8]
Growing up is strange
Get too close, push away
Thinking you would do the same
New regrets, new mistakes
Growing up is strange
When the one who's to blame is looking at the mirror
Wish that you were here
Growing up is
(Wish that you were here)
[Verse 9]
Growing up is weird
Sleep with friends, break a heart
Question everything you thought
Split a pill, smoke a dart
Growing up is weird
Fall in love for a year
And then I disappear
Wish that you were here
[Verse 10]
Growing up is strange
Get too close, push away
Thinking you would do the same
New regrets, new mistakes
Growing up is strange
When the one who's to blame is looking at the mirror
Wish that you were here
Growing up is weird
[Verse 11]
But I'll just disappear
Oh, well, I just disappeared
Wish that you were here
Growing up is
