Have It All

Growing up and she's moving on
Not a second left to wonder
Where her seventeenth summer's gone but
She lies awake every night until half past one
Feeling like the whole world is waiting
To see who she'll become

September won't feel the same this time around
Got four years on her own
And the plane has barely left the ground and
All these kids act like they've got it all figured out but
They can't even tell her exactly what they've been learning about

Looking in every direction it's
Everyone chasing perfection with-
Out ever asking why

These days she needs to work a lot harder
To seem like the daughter
Her parents have always known
And if she doesn't paint up her face
And find a crowded place
All her friends say she'll die alone
So in her mirror she puts on a smile
As the summer fades into fall
Cuz she's been convinced if she takes one more Adderall
That she can have it all

The weather's good until the clouds start rolling in and
She starts feeling like a stranger in her own skin but
Been living fast tied to the mast, now she's too far gone
And she can't find a way off of the ride she's on

Feels like she's stuck in a dream sometimes
But things are not what they seem the times
She says she's doing fine

Cuz these days she needs to work a lot harder
To seem like the daughter
Her parents have always known
And if she doesn't paint up her face
And find a crowded place
All her friends say she'll die alone
So in her mirror she puts on a smile
Hiding rain that's waiting to fall
And she's still convinced if she takes one more Adderall
That she can have it all

Feels like she's slipping away and she's
Lost in the thought of what life could be
If she could only find the time

Cuz these days she needs to work a lot harder
To seem like the daughter
Her parents have always known
And if she doesn't paint up her face
And find a crowded place
All her friends say she'll die alone
So in her mirror she puts on a smile
Hiding rain that's waiting to fall
And she's still convinced if she takes one more Adderall
That she can have it all
