Training Wheels

Rosy cheeks, baby teeth Riding bikes and grazing knees Chocolate-covered strawberries Fake tattoos up our sleeves Mom's blush on my cheeks Like a boy, he's kinda sweet Breaking up after a week We still talk but never married I want to, but I can't go back, life's a one-way street Then growing up and getting older is like driving high speed And I can't hit the brakes and that's the part I hate Losing the training wheels means I'm gonna fall Just 'cause I'm wearing heels, doesn't mean I feel tall If I keep the candles burning The years would still be turning Losing the training wheels means losing control Just 'cause I'm older now doesn't mean I feel whole I wish the years won't be turning If I keep the candles burning What if I'm a liability Or not who they want me to be? If my thoughts get the best of me I still call mom when it gets heavy My little brother shot past my height Can't fit on my dad's shoulders if I tried I want to, but I can't go back, life's a one-way street Then growing up and getting older is like driving high speed And I can't hit the brakes and that's the part I hate Losing the training wheels means I'm gonna fall Just 'cause I'm wearing heels doesn't mean I feel tall If I keep the candles burning The years would still be turning Losing the training wheels means losing control Just 'cause I'm older now doesn't mean I feel whole I wish the years won't be turning If I keep the candles burning Lost parts of me, kinda sad to think about How fast moments pass, oh, I'm thinking way too loud Still in this town, what if I never get out? (What if I never get out?) Oh, I'm still me, learn to swim but almost drown Died once or twice when the guys I loved walked out But I'm still here with both my feet on the ground Blow another candle out, think I'm finally happy now I lost the training wheels and learned how to fall And now I'm wearing heels, sometimes I still feel small I wished the years won't be turning If I keep the candles, keep the candles burning
