When I’m All Grown Up Lyrics by Ashton Turner

Therapy

2020

Life just keeps on going
Days turn from chapters to pages to paragraphs
I used to be small
Now I'm here in the middle with bundles of photographs
You, you seem so numb
Living off crumbs of contentment like you're meant to be feeling this way
Day after day
When I'm all grown up
Grey at the edges
Lines on my face
Weary from the years I've seen through
Will I still laugh
When my eyes fill with tears
And my belly aches
Despite all the things I've been through
When I'm all grown up
Will my paper wings
Turn to feathers
Or will these vines turn into roots
Will I withstand
The stormy weather
Or let the wind and rain render me mute
Does this living thing
Get easier
Or does it just get boring
Or are you too busy ignoring
(Fighting and warring)
Counting and scoring to see
When I'm all grown up
Will I still ask
So many questions
Will I still say I don't know
Will I have changed
What remains
Does this fire in me have an expiration date
(When she's all grown up) New generation
(Will we have raised a)
(New generation) Who knows the love that we never got
(Be patient, be patient)
Will I still fight all these emotions (I still fight all these emotions)
And will my sadness still be sated with a song (Sadness still be sated with a song)
I'm scared that I'll
(Scared that I)
Be just like you
(Damaged you)
Succomb to
(Put you through)
The pain that I shamed all along
Am I strong
(Am I strong)
You were strong once too
(Was I strong once too)
I remember you (I remember, I remember)
If I had a crystal ball
A prophecy that showed it all
Would I look upon my life
Would I want to know
Do I get better at this game
(Does the voice in my head still sound the same)
Do I like myself a little more
Do I finally kick that asshole out the door
Will I still have big dreams (Will I still have big dreams)
Or will I know better (Do I know better)
Will my days all blur (Will my days all blur)
Into one, that our lives have begun and begun (Into one and begun)
And when I'm all grown up (When she's all grown up)
Will I feel complete (Complete)
What's complete feel like
Anyway
When I'm all grown up (She's all grown up)
Will I wish that today was yesterday (Will I wish that today was yesterday)
