Security Blanket
So this is it
All the years that I wanted this
How'd you leave without me noticing
I'm feeling powerless, but they swear that I'm ready
You told a lie
I used to think days end in lullabies
And fairytales came without dollar signs
Until my wide eyes began to feel heavy
I can't figure out how I'm supposed to grow up and move on
When I still feel so young
I just looked behind me to find that that child is long gone
And I'm coming undone
But I guess that it's all for the better
I can't keep my security blanket
Forever
I know a few
Friends of mine fell out of touch with you
Long before they ever wanted to
I guess that's always true, when it's all said and done
And they remember it
The very moment that you fell from their grip
When someone starts to raise themselves, they don't forget
So maybe that makes me the lucky one
I can't figure out how I'm supposed to grow up and move on
When I still feel so young
I just looked behind me to find that that child is long gone
And I'm coming undone
But I guess that it's all for the better
I can't keep my security blanket
Forever
Was it the day I turned eighteen
Were you gone by the morning
Or when I got my first apartment
Did you slip out the door then, oh
Adolescence
You're more precious than money
But you can't follow me into my twenties
I can't figure out how I'm supposed to grow up and move on
When I still feel so young
I just looked behind me to find that that child is long gone
And I'm coming undone
Cause I can't figure out how I'm supposed to grow up and move on
When I still feel so young
I just looked behind me to find that that child is long gone
And I'm coming undone
But I guess that it's all for the better
I can't keep my security blanket
Forever
All the years that I wanted this

I can't figure out how I'm supposed to grow up and move on
When I still feel so young
I just looked behind me to find that that child is long gone
And I'm coming undone
But I guess that it's all for the better
I can't keep my security blanket
