lyrics

I’m bigger now
Soft around my waist
My guards are down
There’s more of me but that’s alright
Less of me that I despise each day

We’re older now
It’s hard to find those things
We used to care about
There’s less for conversation and
One more poor excuse to drag it out

Lately it’s been awkward
I’m stepping over eggshells
But I’m tired
Of sacrificing the soles of my feet
When I know you won’t do the same for me

Like a wool sock in a dryer
A snake that shed its skin
It’s not that I don’t love this
But right now you don’t fit
As I’m growing into me, I’m growing out of you


I said it out loud
Somehow that feels worse
No I’m not too proud
To say I’m second guessing things
But maybe growing up means cutting down

Lately it’s been awkward
I’m stepping over eggshells
But I’m tired
Of sacrificing the soles of my feet
Regardless of you baby, it hurts me

Like a wool sock in a dryer
A snake that shed its skin
It’s not that I don’t love this
But right now you don’t fit
As I’m growing into me, I’m growing out of you

If growing up mean cutting down
And cutting off means falling out
I better not tiptoe around
I’m falling’ down

Like a wool sock in a dryer
A snake that shed its skin
It’s not that I don’t love this
But right now you don’t fit
As I’m growing into me, I’m growing out of you

Growing out of you
Growing out of you
Growing out of you
