Grown Up

20 candles on the cake
Yellow cabs and vintage gowns
I coulda used a friend
When you came around

Watched me lose my world, so you gave me yours
Said, "Nothing's gonna hurt you now"
Kissed me and you said I was so mature
Thought I had it figured out

Made me feel so grown up, grown up
Where were all the grown-ups growing up?
Now that I'm a grown up, grown up
I don't get how you were having fun, I was way too young

New city all alone
My parents broke our home
Thought I was so independent
Rewrite the story every time I tell it

I was just a kid, couldn't even drink
Younger than your son is now
Does it make you sick?
Did you really think I'd never say the words out loud?
Thought I wouldn't find you out

Made me feel so grown up, grown up
Where were all the grown-ups growing up?
Now that I'm a grown up, grown up
I don't get how you were having fun, I was way too young

How could you be having fun? I was way too young
How could you be having fun? I was way too young

You were not a white knight, you were just a man
Now I'm finally old enough to fucking understand
I wasn't an old soul, I was just a kid
How do you sleep at night knowing what you did?

Made me feel so grown up, grown up
Where were all the grown-ups growing up?
Now that I'm a grown up, grown up
I don't get how you were having fun, I was way too young

Watched me lose my world, so you gave me yours
Said, "Nothing's gonna hurt you now"
Now that I'm a grown up, grown up
I don't get how you were having fun, I was way too young
