im getting older im not growing up
an education never did enough
im 22 and im still a kid
go out and drink for the hell of it
i wrote a lot of melodies
hoping to save the memories
growing up is such a pain
i know that im the one to blame
for the chip on my shoulder
"life is hard," they don't disagree
that's what my parents keep on telling me
go get a job before it's too late
we love you son, we know you'll do great
and every day just feels the same
nothing ever seems to change
im praying i don't miss my chance
before a boring life can claim me
im dying to begin
but time keeps slipping away from me
im still seventeen
chasing after dreams i've yet to see
a kick in the head is all i need
but i won't quit cuz this here guitar sings
of opportunity
i lose my temper when they criticize
not in the mood to apologize
cuz everybody walked all over me
i never stood up for what i believed
i craved attention all the time
but depression plagued my mind
don't wanna burden anyone
with the thoughts that have become
so much darker and colder
