Lyrics

Pushin' boundaries
Dreamin' 'bout pushin' strollers
Fightin' tooth and nail against gettin' older
Every single year of taxes in one email folder
Yellin' louder
Like more volume means more power
Findin' time each day to shower
Learnin' to live lightly and not count the hours
Used to be a clown but now I'm a downer
Used to have a home, now I'm an out-of-towner
Used to be someone that you'd be proud of
Used to be so sweet until I turned
Sour
Sour
Sour
Now we're
Facin' problems
Confident we can solve 'em
Actually pickin' up the phone and callin
Dreadin' makin' tough decisions but gettin' quicker at responding
Years get shorter
Birthdays feel like torture
Feelin' younger as you get older
Fearin' change but cravin' some semblance of order
Used to be so brave and now I'm a coward
Used to be ok and now I doubt it
Used to be a poet and now I'm a loudmouth
Used to be so sweet til I turned
Sour
Sour
Sour
Now
Sour candy, taste it on me
Lemon, lime are wasted on me
You've been leanin' closer lately
Pucker up and kiss me baby
Oh, oh
Sour candy in my pocket all along
Anxious feeling
Learned to take feelings lightly
Learned that some imposing things aren't frightening
Learned that keeping versus making friends takes much more trying
Tryin' harder
Waitin' less time to get started
Never ever getting carded
Realizing you'd take kinder over smarter
Used to give away my hard earned hours
Used to feel like love should be earned not showered
Used to be too sweet to truly flower
I'll say it gladly, that now I'm
Sour
Sour
Sour
Now
Sour candy, taste it on me
Lemon, lime are wasted on me
You've been leanin' closer lately
Pucker up and kiss me baby
Oh, oh
Sour candy in my pocket all along
Oh, oh
Sour candy in my pocket all along
