Girl Cologne's "Growing Up, Getting Old" out now via Tragic Hero Records.
LYRICS:
As time slips away from me now
Can't feel my feet on the ground
Wonderin' why I've never found
What I'm lookin' for
Maybe I don't know where to find it
Or maybe it's just real good at hiding
Or maybe I just don't really mind it
I don't need more
Reasons to keep on running
You know I've got a ton and
I gotta get this done and
Slowly go towards
Something that gives me meaning
Something that feels so freeing
Just wanna keep on being
Who I was before
Growing up, getting old
Trying something and getting told
Push it down, no let it out
Good little girls never pout
Not enough, you do too much
Might it be better if you just shut up
Wondering when the changes started
And wondering how it fell apart and
Wondering if I try so hard can
I finally reach for
The things that keep me going
Can I keep on growing
Without ever knowing
What life has in store
So I'll try hard to break through
And I'll try hard to make due
And I will try to be true to
Who I was before
Growing up, getting old
Trying something and getting told
Push it down, no let it out
Good little girls never pout
Not enough, you do too much
Might it be better if you just shut up
Don't tell me what to do
I'm sick of getting told
Don't tell me what to do
Growing up is getting old
