What If I Don't Grow Up?
What happens when the four of us are in the same room
And we haven't see each other since leaving the womb
But the hiss of the static means no one has a damn thing to say?
We just stare at our phones, they're glued to our hands
We're searching for friends, making overdue plans
'Cuz wherever we aren't, the greener grass is fading to gray
There must have been a point where we could have said "no"
We'd never be these people, we swore it not long ago
What if I don't grow up, I just grow old
A product of the clock
They just add 15% more and change the box?
What if I don't grow up, I just grow colder
Orbiting away
And the sun keeps shrinking with every passing day?
So nobody's happy, the photos are shopped
And everybody's bumping and waiting for the drop
As if the beat is the only release from this American life
It's an anxious world that we're living in
And I've gotten this far without giving in
But the shadows are tempting and haunt me and gnaw at my mind
'Cuz that instant gratification hasn't happened for me
And I'm spammed with little glimpses of things I'll never have or be
What if I don't grow up, I just grow old
A product of the clock
They just add 15% more and change the box?
What if I don't grow up, I just grow colder
Orbiting away
And the sun keeps shrinking with every passing day?
With every passing day
What if I don't grow up, I just grow old
A product of the clock
They just add 15% more and change the box?
What if I don't grow up, I just grow colder
Orbiting away
And the sun keeps shrinking with every passing day?
With every passing day
And we haven't see each other since leaving the womb
But the hiss of the static means no one has a damn thing to say?
We just stare at our phones, they're glued to our hands
We're searching for friends, making overdue plans
'Cuz wherever we aren't, the greener grass is fading to gray
There must have been a point where we could have said "no"
We'd never be these people, we swore it not long ago
What if I don't grow up, I just grow old
A product of the clock
They just add 15% more and change the box?
What if I don't grow up, I just grow colder
Orbiting away
And the sun keeps shrinking with every passing day?
So nobody's happy, the photos are shopped
And everybody's bumping and waiting for the drop
As if the beat is the only release from this American life
It's an anxious world that we're living in
And I've gotten this far without giving in
But the shadows are tempting and haunt me and gnaw at my mind
'Cuz that instant gratification hasn't happened for me
And I'm spammed with little glimpses of things I'll never have or be
What if I don't grow up, I just grow old
A product of the clock
They just add 15% more and change the box?
What if I don't grow up, I just grow colder
Orbiting away
And the sun keeps shrinking with every passing day?
With every passing day
What if I don't grow up, I just grow old
A product of the clock
They just add 15% more and change the box?
What if I don't grow up, I just grow colder
Orbiting away
And the sun keeps shrinking with every passing day?
With every passing day
