Growing Pains

It's hard to act old, when I'm still so young at heart
You aren't here now, but you weren't there from the start
There was decay now we're estranged
You'll be the one that got away
But we both know that I am better off without you anyway

All I know is something's over
And it's not my life it's us
And I could feel myself get colder
Was it you or just my luck
I think I'm starting to change
The things I'd do to bring back those days
I wish I could find blame
Is it because of me, well I'm told they're
Growing Pains
Growing Pains

I can't remember, a time I moved so slow
A friend in need is a friend of mine
But where were you when I cast that line
There was no hate our time was great
I've had the months to contemplate
Keep an eye on me, one day you'll see
I'll turn out better than you'd believe

All I know is something's over
And it's not my life it's us
And I could feel myself get colder
Was it you or just my luck
I know I'm starting to change
But you're still stuck inside my brain
Losing you was like an endgame
I've been diagnosed with
Growing Pains
Growing Pains

So take what you want
But only what you believe
This house of memories is sold
And I managed to keep the spare key

It kills me inside
To see you behind a screen
Are you happier now than you were sat beside me?

I guess you're moving quicker
Than we could've called
A smile withdrawn
I put up my walls
But how do I run before a crawl?

And if you took the time
To look inside my brain
And if I tried to pick up my game
Would things still be the same?

We all play a part be it reason or cause
But what is the point in the scheme of it all?
Cut the line
Foot on my throat
The words are there and all I do is choke

I won't be stopped
Or be defined
To me love is for those who fall behind
