They Say You Grow

(album: Scary Fragile - 2009)

I've been stuck for what seems like years
Finally free
And what do I see?
I see eyes and they're looking at me
There's so much to be

They say you grow when you're asleep in bed
I won't give in
I must up the fight
I'm gonna keep my eyes wide
All day and night

My dreams are bigger than me
How will I get there?
Who will I have to be?
I'm so eager and I'm so scared
There's so much to see

They say you grow when you're asleep in bed
I won't give in
I must up the fight
I'm gonna keep my eyes wide
All day and night

Everyday I feel a little more like me
I get to pay the bills and sometimes I get shoes for free
I'm fine
Yeah I'm fine

A little stressed out at times, it's true
But I found my own ways of getting through
I'm fine
Mom, I'm fine

I've been there and I've done that
I've got the photos and I've got the scars to prove it
I'm so tired and I'm so glad
For what I have

They say you grow when you're asleep in bed
I'd like to know
I won't put up the fight
I'm gonna rest my head
Until the lights go out

Lights out, sleep tight
Lights out, sleep tight
Lights out, lights out
Sleep tight tonight
