growing pains

(album: spark__space - 2023)

I used to ask my parents
When I would be
Able to see
Over the sink

I didn't notice I got taller until
The top of my head
Reached the windowsill

Growing pains, I know it's gunna ache
But things just have to change
Cause nothing will remain

That's why they call it
Growing pains
I know it's gunna ache
But things just have to change
Cause nothing will remain

Sitting by a riverside
With tears streaming down my eyes
I ask whatever's out there
If it can hear my cries

Hurting fingers going numb
First cigarette at way too young
Thinking maybe when I'm older
I won't wanna die

Growing pains, I know it's gunna ache
But things just have to change
Cause nothing will remain

That's why they call it
Growing pains
I know it's gunna ache
But things just have to change
Cause nothing will remain

It never stops
But I, have learned a lot

Growing pains, I know it's gunna ache
But things just have to change
Cause nothing will remain

That's why they call it
Growing pains
I know it's gunna ache
But things just have to change
Cause nothing will remain

I just turned 22
I don't know what to do
I didn't plan on making it this far
Nostalgia for the present
Cause it already happened
I guess I'm learning
It will always be hard
