I miss the times when I was a child
When all of my days were sunny clear skies
When going to school meant drawing with crayons
When loving someone meant holding their hand
I miss the times when I didn't realize
Every second that passes is a little less time
That I have to live, and love, and learn
That I'm drowning in the rest of the world
And I'm getting older now and I don't know how
I don't know how to grow
I don't know how to grow up
I don't wanna grow up
I hate watching everyone around me seem to know what's going on
'Cause everything I do feels wrong
Every second that passes is one more second I'll never get back
And I miss the times when I knew I was right
When the nights were so scary I didn't turn out the light
When I thought that the monster was under my bed
Before the monster was in my head
And I miss the times when I didn't know
How many choices I would regret
When I didn't think every decision I made
Would be time I wouldn't get back again
And I'm getting older now and I don't know how
I don't know how to grow
I don't know how to grow up
I don't wanna grow up
I hate watching everyone around me seem to know what's going on
'Cause everything I do feels wrong
Every second that passes is one more second I'll never get back
And I miss the times when my soul was alive
When I didn't understand the bite
Of the cold in the air, when you realize that
You're getting older and older
And soon it'll be over
I miss the times, I miss it all
I miss knowing someone would be there
To catch me when I fall
I miss the times when I didn't realize
Every second that passes is a little less time
I miss the times
I miss the times
