Lyrics

Don't want to stay up
I've been feeling down all night and a little drunk
Got so much on my mind as alarms go off
So much on my mind as the sun comes up
Oh, as the sun comes up
I wanna stay young
Thought time was on my side, but now I'm growing up
Spending so much time in college just to feel so dumb
So much time in a place I don't belong
Oh, I don't belong
Oh, I carry what they say on my back
Oh, I've carried all this weight all my life
Spending hours and hours a day to make them proud
Instead, the thoughts inside my head break their hearts
Feels like I've been running out of time
Always running out of time to make them proud
I wanna go home
I never thought at 21 I'd feel so alone
I found patience, love in all this time, but how long
How long will I need to hold my own
Oh, to hold my own
And don't tell mom
Don't Tell Dad
The moment I left home, I found who I am
I'm still their kid, but I need to let them know
That I carry what they say on my back
Oh, I've carried all this weight all my life
Spending hours and hours a day to make them proud
Instead the thoughts inside my head break their hearts
Feels like I've been running out of time
Always running out of time to make them proud
I'm sinking like a stone
Oh, it's breaking all my bones
I'm reaching out to make them proud
To make them proud
To make them proud
Oh, I carry what they say on my back
