(Verse)

I told him no and to stick it

Out of town with a down in my name

Said I’m done with all of my fake friends

Self-righteous pawns in a losing game

Got my band and a light that won't go out

Been burning since the day I was born

So I cried just a little then I dried my eyes

‘Cause I’m not a little girl no more



(Chorus)

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind



(Verse)

Certain life is so long as the picket

Something I will never understand

I’m too tired of always being mad at the world

Won’t you just admit you don’t care?

Lady I don’t want your pity

So don’t feel sad for me

I’ve got a lover would die for this song to see

Maybe we’re both just living out how I dream



(Chorus)

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind



(Verse)

We get along for the most part

Me and reality, the light in the dark

And we live alone

In two evil worlds

Be in a fantasy

With you and your memories

But we get along



(Bridge)

We get along

For the most part! 

We get along

Yea, for the most part! 

We get along

For the most part! 

We get along

We get along

We get along



(Chorus x2)

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind

Some of us have to grow up sometimes

And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind (leave you behind)
