I told 'em all where to stick it
I left town with a dime to my name
Said Im 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'll cry just a little then I'll dry my eyes
Cause I'm not a little girl no more

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

Stood in line for so long just to pick it
Something I will never understand
Aren't you tired of always being mad at the world?
Wont 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 love I would die for and a song to sing
Maybe were both just living out our dream

And 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

We get along for the most part
Me and reality, the light in the dark
And we live alone, in two different worlds
Me in a fantasy, you and your memories
But we get along

We get along
For the most part
We get along
Yeah, for the most part
We get along
For the most part
We get along

We get along
We get along

Some of us have to grow up sometimes
And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind (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)

(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)
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
And so if I have to I'm gonna leave you behind
