[Intro] I can't sleep, I'm too tired for this I don't wanna be broken in And whipped and trained to spend my days In a place I hate for a measly wage It's just too much pain to work today I'll try to keep sane until I get paid So I can feed myself another day It's just not my way I can't live this way It's just not my way I can't live this way [Verse 1] I met a guy who says I'm pretty, I could be a model If I tried But when we got to talkin' about tops and bottoms He lied, he lied [Pre-Chorus 1] Just please give me something to stop this ache Just please give me something to fill this lake Just please give me something my heart can take Just please give me something fake [Chorus 1] Maybe when I grow up, I can paint it on my face Another name that I despise, one to take my place Then I'll be complete, and I won't have to worry anymore And I know I'm not the first to be so selfishly adored [Verse 2] I told him that I just can't say those words "You're mine, you're mine" But if we were to go our separate ways today I'd cry, I'd cry [Pre-Chorus 2] Just please let me know why I feel this way Just please make me feel confident today Just please understand that I cannot stay Just please make it go away [Chorus 2] Maybe when I grow up, I can be a better friend I'll learn a lesson I'll despise, one to clear my head When I turn to see, all of my worries will be gone And I'll finally get some sense, because I'll know that I was wrong [Chorus 3] Maybe when I grow up, I'll see you standin' there Another place that I despise near all my fallen hair When I go to sleep, you won't have to worry again 'Cause you'll know that I've done well, or I've convinced myself I did
