Lyrics Growing Up - Run River North

Growing Up

There’s a fight to be won
For the love you find at home
There is work to be done
Before you rest your weary bones
I’m finding peace don’t come
To everyone I know
So I will love in this life
Until I finally have to go
Said I will love in this life
Until I finally have to go
Well I know I have lived
Just a wrinkle of my life
And I hear so many times
It’ll be over if I blink twice
Please forgive if I don’t walk
Off that plank stuck in your eye
I’ve got my life to love
And I’m here to take what’s mine
I’ve got my life to love
And I’m here to take what’s mine
Growing up child
Is just a matter of time
For giving all you’ve got
So won’t you dance under the sun
Growing old
Feels like you’re giving up your soul
I’d rather give it freely
To the ones that I call home
I ain’t scared, no not afraid
Of the world in front of me
I found my way without your help
With a broken family
I’ll take my breaks with my sins
I’ll do as I do please
With my friends 'til the end
There lies my loyalty
With my friends 'til the end
My lies, their loyalty
I used to close my eyes
To what stirred under my bed
Now they’re open wide
To the monsters in my hed
Instead of claws, they whisper lies
Sinking fear in quiet steps
So I will fight in the light
'Til I give my final breath
Said I’ll fight in the light
'Til I give my final breath
Oh I will fight in the light
'Til I give my final breath
Said I’ll fight in the light
'Til I give my final breath
Oh I will fight in the light
'Til I give my final breath
Growing up child
Is just a matter of time
For giving all you’ve got
So won’t you dance under the sun
Growing old
Feels like you’re giving up your soul
I’d rather give it freely
To the ones that I call home
