Growing Pains - Maria Mena

No one will tell you about the limit

They put on how long you can grieve

No one will warn you when you’re winning

How heavy a loss love can be

They do not tell you about the friendships

You’ll lose once the lights are dimmed down

How humble you’ll feel about your past bliss

Once the tables are turned around

But I wanna tell you I got through

The hardest of times on my own

I made some mistakes, I made a few

But I’ve learned that I am strong

And

Just because it hurts

Doesn’t mean it isn’t worth it

And even if it stings

It’s just a temporary thing

I’m not saying that changing

Won’t cost you love, won’t make you cry,

But it will all make sense…

When the growing pains subside

Nothing can shield you from the silence

Nights spent on his side of the bed

Praying for help to please stop crying

My life just got turned on its head

They fail to explain how complex love is…

Like why I mostly miss him as a friend

Or how big of a blow, it was for my ego

That she might be better for him…

But I wanna tell you I got through

The hardest of times on my own

I made some mistakes, I made a few

But I learned that I am strong

And just because it hurts

Doesn’t mean it isn’t worth it

And even if it stings

It’s just a temporary thing

I’m not saying that changing

Won’t cost you love won’t make you cry,

But it will all make sense…

When the growing pains subside

And just because it hurts

Doesn’t mean it isn’t worth it

And even if it stings

It’s just a temporary thing

And no one says that changing

Won’t cost you love won’t make you cry,

But it will all make sense…

When the growing pains subside
