They Say You Grow - Butterfly Boucher

I’ve been stuck and it seems like years

Finally free

What do I see?

I see

I see eyes and they’re looking at me

There’s so much to be

They say you grow when you’re asleep in bed

I won’t give in

I must up a fight

I’m gonna keep my eyes wide

All day and night

My dreams are bigger than me

How will I get there?

Who will I have to be?

I’m so eager and I’m so scared

There’s so much to see

They say you grow when you’re asleep in bed

I won’t give in

I must up a fight

I’m gonna keep my eyes wide

All day and night

Everyday I feel a little more like me

I get to pay the bills and sometimes I get shoes for free

I’m fine

Yeah I’m fine

A little stressed out at times it’s true

But I found my own ways of getting through

I’m fine

Mom, I’m fine

I’ve been there and I’ve done that

I’ve got the photos and I’ve got the scars to prove it

I’m so tired and I’m so glad

For what I have

They say you grow when you’re asleep in bed

I’d like to know

I won’t put up a fight

I’m gonna rest my head

Until the lights go out

Lights out, sleep tight

Lights out, sleep tight

Lights out, lights out

Sleep tight tonight

Lights out, lights out

Sleep tight tonight
