Early September I'll change with the weather And put on my big girl shoes Pack it all in a suitcase Say goodbye to your old ways I never liked trying something new Knowing that everything won't be the same Leaving the faces I see every day Feels like I'm trading the sunshine for rain My stomach's in knots, a chokehold Learning how to grow up gets so old And I have my reasons to go with the seasons But there'll never be a fall so blue Lying to myself in secret Put my panic on the shelf and leave it And to be honest, I'm never cautious But leaving in August feels to soon A creature of habit Don't do well with the rapid change I'm ashamed, I'm afraid and I'm hoping it fades Knowing that everything won't be the same Leaving the faces I see every day Feels like I'm trading the sunshine for rain My stomach's in knots, a chokehold Learning how to grow up gets so old And I have my reasons to go with the seasons But there'll never be a fall so blue Lying to myself in secret Put my panic on the shelf and leave it And to be honest, I'm never cautious But leaving in August feels to soon I'm getting tangled From every angle Been looking for angels To leave an impression A sense of direction I'm getting tangled From every angle And it might be painful To leave an impression A sense of direction But everybody's gotta grow up someday My stomach's in knots, a chokehold Learning how to grow up gets so old And I have my reasons to go with the seasons But that doesn't stop me missing you
