Laura and the Storm - I Don't Want to Be an Adult

Spent the autumn skipping class, the lessons never last anyway
I spent the summer sneaking out
Filling up my small town with empty clichés
From all the shit mistakes you made
Nobody ever gets good grades collecting small regrets
Nobody escapes high school
Not even jocks or the cool kids smoking cigarettes

And I am terrified of what will happen next

I don't want to be an adult
I'm not quite done yet with growing up
I don't what to be an adult
I'm not quite done yet with fucking up

Please know that I miss you
I'm sorry if you're still confused
I've been holding back the heart attacks
I'll do what it takes helping with bellyaches and holding hair back
I love it when you sing, breaking guitar strings in parking lots
We were screaming at the sky, exploring endless nights like astronauts
There are galaxies in bruises from the nights that we fought

I don't want to be an adult
I'm not quite done yet with growing up
I don't what to be an adult
I'm not quite done yet with fucking up

I still don't quite understand the economy
but there are a lot less rules now about serving alcohol to me
I'm still scared when making my own appointments at the dentist
And what the hell
What the hell
What the hell are taxes
