When I was 15
I took it for granted
The time I had with you
When I was implanted
With eternal sadness
That was only quelled by you
You were the only thing I knew

If it was your fault, I don't know
Or maybe I don't want to admit it
The reason I am so damn dependent
Is 'cause I always followed you closely
I couldn't help but end up like a dog
Because that's all I was trained to do

F*ck, I wish it wasn't like this
But there's only so much I can do
When I'm just a kid with a scooter
and a box full of broken Nerf guns
But you know what? I don't care
Now I'm living life with everything that matters
To me, and missing what mattered the most to me

No one wants their kid to grow up
But with life will come that glow up
Normally it seems happier than ever
But we'll never get to see what lasts forever

I can only hold on for so long
But the stress is making my hands wet
I'm not ready to say "so long" yet
But like a grasshopper it jumps away
And like a caterpillar the crawl is slow
And like a butterfly it glides with grace
And like a flower it comes to pollinate
But then a hawk comes and takes it away

No one wants their kid to grow up
But with life will come that glow up
Normally it seems happier than ever
But we'll never get to see what lasts forever

Gone are the days of watching Cartoon Network
On the TV above the fireplace
With the sun gleaming through the windows
Shining on your ironing board
Its hard to forget where you came from
A house is built on its foundation
And despite the shit that it may bring,
Surely its better than a trailer home

No one wants their kid to grow up
But with life will come that glow up
Normally it seems happier than ever
But we'll never get to see what lasts forever

I don't think anyone wanted to grow up
As many tend to turn into a cockup
Every time it seems happier than ever
But now we all know nothing lasts forever
