grown lyrics

[Verse]
I want to be little again
Break into backbends, rush of blood, headstands
I want to be little again
'Cause my back is bent and my head can't stand it now
I want to be little
I want to be thin and
I want to look brittle like bones and skin, I
I want to be little
As small as I can
But I'm only human

[Pre Chorus]
With my shoes so small
I felt ten feet tall
My potential reigned
Perfect for my age
You'd be mortified at how I glorify it
When I felt as small as I did

[Chorus]
But I know that I've grown
So, I'll throw out the clothes I swore I'd keep
You know just in case
I could lose the weight
Or regress in age to fourteen
[Post Chorus]
When my problems all were bound to resolve
In the comfort of my home
I'll still want to be little but
But it's good that I've grown

[Verse]
I wanna feel simple again
Running around with friends
Sprint and kill our legs, I
I wanna feel simple again
I was guiltless in every chronic sin
I want to feel simple
I want to go to bars
I want to feel faultless, but still worthy of war
I want to feel simple
Could drown it in gin, but I know that won't fix it

[Pre Chorus]
For a soul so young
It's completely numb
Thinking for myself
At the cost of hell
You'd be mortified at how I glorify it
When I felt as wrong as I lived
[Chorus]
But I know that I've grown
So, I'll throw out the clothes I swore I'd keep
You know just in case
I could lose the weight
Or regress in age to fourteen

[Post Chorus]
When my problems all were bound to resolve
In the comfort of my home
I'll still want to be little but
It's so good that I've grown
I still want to be little
But it's good that I've grown

[Chorus]
I know that I've grown
It's just more than I'd hoped
And I can't shrink
So I'll take up space
Rally all the grace
I am able as I grieve

[Post Chorus]
How my problems all
Without doubt, resolved
In the comfort of my home
Where, I will always miss it a little
But it's clear that I've grown
I still want to be little
But it's good that I've grown
