Problem Child

Hey, little me, are your parents home?

Are you dancing in the kitchen, hitting high notes?

If you only knew what you know now

You wouldn't be afraid to sing so loud

Hey, sixteen, the bottle lands on you

Always ready for a dare 'cause you hide the truth

They're only faces passing through

One day, you're gonna own the room

Catch your breath

Stop running from the monsters

Under your bed

Don't let 'em live one second longer in your head

You think that you're a problem child

But you are not the problem

You'll find home someday

Away from all of these strangers

They told you you're a problem child

'Cause they don't want a problem

But they'll all fall from grace

Because everything changes

And you are not the problem, child

No, you are not the problem, child

("Okay, cool!")

Hey, first love, I've been waiting for this

Feeling everything I didn't know I'd missed

When sadness was a friend of mine

I never thought I'd come alive

Hey, next year, when a year has gone

When I'm twenty-four, will all the hurt be done?

'Cause I just wanna dance again

And be the kid I wasn't then

You think that you're a problem child (You think that you're a problem child)

But you are not the problem (But you are not the problem)

You'll find home someday (Ooh)

Away from all of these strangers (Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)

They told you you're a problem child (They told you you're a problem child)

'Cause they don't want a problem ('Cause they don't want a problem)

But they'll all fall from grace (Ooh)

Because everything changes (Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)

(It all changes) Oh, no, no, oh

(It all changes)

(It all changes) What if I, what if I don't?

(Everything changes) Ooh

(It all changes) Yeah

(It all changes) Oh

(It all changes) Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

(Everything changes) Ooh-ooh

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
