Growing Pains Songtext
von Coldharbour

To be upcoming from a state of
Ignorance, the thought was always uncanny
But it never once escaped my mind

To know the burden of living was just too much on my plate
Confounded chaos
Still I kept the road under my feet

But the laws of this world take away from me
The burden of waking up is still creeping over me
Still the leaves turn another day
I′m sick of living just for the sake of living another fucking day

I was told a long time ago that
Drinking is like taking happiness from tomorrow
So I drank every single day until there was none left to borrow


And they say I did it to myself
So maybe that makes me a failure
But I refuse to give up, I'm an expert at getting knocked down

I guess you could call it growing up
But, maybe that makes me a failure
Still I refuse to give up

I′m an expert at getting knocked down
I guess you could call it growing up
Get the fuck up

Grasping at straws to fill a glass now half empty
Screaming inside but I'm muted by self pity
I can't stop

So I yield to another day
I can breathe
But I know I′m not okay
I′m not okay
