Paramore Lyric Diary 2013

Grow Up

I told 'em all where to stick it,

I left town with a dime to my name,

Said "I'm done with all of my fake friends,

Self-righteous pawns in a losing game."

Got my band in a light that won't go out,

Been burnin' since the day I was born.

So I cry just little then I'll dry my eyes,

'Cause I'm not a little girl no more.

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

Stood in line for so long just to picket,

Something I will never understand.

Aren't you tired of always being mad at the world?

Won't you just admit you don't care?

And, lady, I don't want your pity,

So don't feel sad for me,

I've got a lover, would die for, a song to sing,

Maybe we're both just living out our dream.

And some of us have to grow up sometimes,

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

We get along for the most part,

Me and reality, the light and the dark.

And we live alone in two different worlds,

Me and a fantasy, you and your memories.

But we get along,

(We get along),

For the most part,

(We get along),

Yeah, for the most part,

(We get along),

For the most part.

(We get along).

We get along,

We get along.

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

(Leave you behind).

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

(Leave you behind).

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

(We grow up, never grow old),

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.

Some of us have to grow up sometimes,

(We grow up, never grow old),

And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind.
