I told ’em all where to stick it I left town with a dime to my name Said I’m 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 cry just 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 it’s a picket Something I will never understand I’m too tired of always being mad at the world Won’t you just admit you don’t care Lady I don’t want your pity So don’t feel sad for me I got a love I would die for and a song to sing Maybe we’re both just living out our dreams 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 Bridge: We get along for the most part Me and reality the light and the dark And we live alone In two different worlds Me and a fantasy And you and your memories But we get along We get along For the most part We get along Yea 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 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 Some of us have to grow up sometimes And so if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson aborde la nécessité de grandir et de se libérer des fausses amitiés qui nous retiennent. L'interprète évoque un désir d'éloignement face à des relations superficielles et un monde qui semble indifférent. En affirmant qu'elle a des passions et des rêves pour lesquels elle est prête à se battre, elle montre qu'il est parfois essentiel de laisser derrière soi ce qui ne nous sert plus. Le contexte de cette chanson résonne particulièrement dans un monde où beaucoup de jeunes ressentent ce besoin de se débarrasser des attentes et des jugements, pour suivre leur propre chemin. C'est un appel à embrasser sa propre identité et à ne pas craindre les choix qui nous éloignent des autres.
