Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The chalk on the pavement washed away again.
The power we imagined to be a quill pen.
Making out mark, even though it didn't last long.
Baking inside to the tune of a birdsong.
April showers bring May flowers.
Use your powers over the land that's ours.
(Pre-Chorus)
Growing up, feeling stuck in this city.
Growing up never felt this scary.
(Chorus)
These growing pains are too much.
My emotions are too close to touch.
Skin scratched by thorns and covered in petals.
Walking through fields and legs stung by nettles.
(Verse 2)
Leaving small school soon to secondary.
Be your true self in this pandemic.
Although I'm different, at least I'm authentic.
Be a wildflower and bud with few rules.
Don't be so serious and come play with us.
Grow in private but bloom in public.
(Pre-Chorus)
Growing up, feeling stuck in this city.
Growing up never felt this scary.
(Bridge)
Be sweet as berries but give a little kick.
Don't be afraid to speak out and call sick.
You've planted seedlings and we've battled storms.
Sunshingin days and also grown some thorns.
(Chorus)
These growing pains are too much.
My emotions are too close to touch.
Skin scratched by thorns and covered in petals.
Walking through fields and legs stung by nettles.
(Outro)
Growing pains and packaged complaints.
Rainy days teach us to be strong.
Developing brains learning every day.
But we're still young, let us have some fun.
(Let us have some fun.)
