Growing Pains

[Verse 1]

All I want is to minimize

The damage I do

To the people I love

With the time that I have

I'm looking deep in my mother's eyes

Asking her what to do

When it feels where I'm from

Has got me pushed to the back

Don't understand how it can be so hard to be so good to someone

[Verse 2]

All I need is an architect

To draw up the plans

Put them into my hands

God just give me a guide

All I need is an editor

To sift through the muck

Say it's not good enough

Help me rewrite my lines

Don't understand how it can be so hard to be so good at something

[Chorus]

I want to learn to share, I want to listen

I want to grow, and I want to know you

[Verse 3]

All I do is just try so hard

To make all the friends

Keep them shaking my hand

Until I fit in 'round here

Feel so stuck in the middle ground

Too lame to be cool

Too cool to be lame

Man, it's all so unclear

Don't understand how it can be so hard to feel at home somewhere

[Chorus]

I want to learn to share I want to listen

I want to grow and I want to know you

I want to learn to share I want to listen

I want to grow and I want to know you more
