Lyrics
Verse
Small hands holding heavy things
Mama crying in the other room
Dad gone again, no note left behind
We learned to lie and say we’re fine
Pre-chorus
Lights off early, voices low
Laughing loud so no one knows
Chorus
We grew up with the problems
Yeah we grew up with the problems
Broke the same toys, fixed the same fights
Stayed up late turning wrongs to rights
We grew up with the problems
Oh we grew up with the problems
Still got up, still showed up
Heart full of whatever’s left
Verse
School clothes from the wrong year
Lunch money saved for the bus fare home
Friends came and went like seasons change
We kept the secrets, never gave names
Pre-chorus
Backpack heavy, shoulders light
We smiled wide in the dead of night
Chorus
We grew up with the problems
Yeah we grew up with the problems
Broke the same toys, fixed the same fights
Stayed up late turning wrongs to rights
We grew up with the problems
Oh we grew up with the problems
Still got up, still showed up
Heart full of whatever’s left
Bridge
Now the kid inside still talks sometimes
Asks if we made it out alive
We tell him yeah, we’re doing fine
Even when the problems still arrive
Chorus
We grew up with the problems
Yeah we grew up with the problems
Broke the same toys, fixed the same fights
Stayed up late turning wrongs to rights
We grew up with the problems
Oh we grew up with the problems
Still got up, still showed up
Heart full of whatever’s left
Outro
Whatever’s left
Whatever’s left
