Grew Up Fast

Jonah Tolchin


We grew up fast and no one seemed to notice
We grew up fast and we grew up alone
Mom and Dad were never what we wanted
We grew up fast and we grew up alone
And we grew up alone

Well you know who I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
Well you know what I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
You never act like that with no one else

We grew up last when lies were just a fact of life
We grew up mad 'cause we never had a home
We faced the past and forgave the revolution
We grew up smashed and we grew up alone
And we grew up alone

Hey, my brother
I got no fight with you
I just can't lie down
Hey, my brother
I got no fight with you
I just can't lie down
Just can't lie down

Well you know who I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
You know what I am
So don't act like I'm something else
Well you know who I am
So don't treat me like I'm someone else
So don't act like I'm somewhere else
You never talk like that to no one else
You never scream like that for no one else
