"Kid Anymore" lyrics

"Kid Anymore"

Hey mom, how you doing?
Hope this call goes through all the way to Massachusetts
Can't believe the Pats are losing
But there's time for one more try
I've been thinking a lot this morning
Don't really know where my life's going
But the real world's coming any moment
And I'm scared to death inside

My friends all moved to cities
Find someone that's pretty
Maybe settle down on the South Side
Start a life, say it's great
Next day they'll say they hate it
What the hell do I do with mine?
The training wheel's are gone
And everyone's moving on
The clock won't even stop for a minute
And then before you know you're out there on your own
Wondering where to go and what you're missing
It hits so fast, you can't prepare for that
They walk out the door
And you're not a kid anymore

Four years is almost up now
And they say this place, it's a ten year town
I've been trying to find myself
Been trying to figure out myself
One day you're getting closer
The next it feels like it's all over
I'm not old but I'm getting older
And I could use a little help

'Cause my friends all moved to cities
Find someone that's pretty
Maybe settle down on the South Side
They start a life, say it's great
Next day they'll say they hate it
What the hell do I do with mine?
'Cause the training wheel's are gone
And everyone's moving on
The clock won't even stop for a minute
And then before you know you're out there on your own
Wondering where to go and what you're missing
It hits so fast, you can't prepare for that
They walk out the door
And you're not a kid anymore

And you're not a kid anymore

And moments turn to memories
Just like seasons change
And I'll always be your baby
But I just called to say

My friends all moved to cities
Find someone that's pretty
Maybe settle down on the South Side
They start a life, say it's great
Next day they'll say they hate it
What the hell do I do with mine?
The training wheel's are gone
And everyone's moving on
The clock won't even stop for a minute
And then before you know you're out there on your own
Wondering where to go and what you're missing
It hits so fast, you can't prepare for that
They walk out the door
And I'll always be your baby
But I'm not a kid
I'm not a kid anymore
