Sometimes I wonder whether me when I was younger Would like the person that I've become 'Cause first impressions tend to last through adolescence And she still kinda hates everyone You and I aren't so different Hindsight has perfect vision You don't even know all the places that you'll go But I'm sorry that you feel so alone Everything's gonna get better, everything's gonna get worse When it gets hard, remember that's the way it always works Maybe we're just like flowers starin' down in the dirt Everyone calls them growin' pains because we know the hurt Sometimes I question when I look at my reflection If the person looking back is really me (Is really me) A couple years spent learning how to disappear A couple more spent learning what I could be You and I aren't so different Hindsight has perfect vision You don't even know all the places that you'll go But I'm sorry that you feel so alone Everything's gonna get better, everything's gonna get worse When it gets hard, remember that's the way it always works Maybe we're just like flowers starin' down in the dirt Everyone calls them growin' pains because we know the hurt I can't help myself from fakin' a smile Hard to break an old habit you've had for a while I don't wanna be any less than me Sometimes, it's hard to believe Everything's gonna get better, everything's gonna get worse When it gets hard, remember that's the way it always works Maybe we're just like flowers starin' down in the dirt Everyone calls them growin' pains because we know the hurt
