Sticks and Stones

[Verse 1]
I got a call from my baby
She said, "Darling, what have you been up to lately?"
I said, "Not much, I've just been singing in these bars."
"Working towards the day when living doesn't seem so hard."
It's fine (fine)
I'm doing just fine; how 'bout you? (you)
Is there something you're going through?

[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "I love you so, don't give up on us now."
"I know you feel it in your soul."

[Chorus]
These changes, scared of growing up and so afraid that I won't make it
Rearrange us, I'm all out of love and trying hard to keep on faking
But for you, I'll do anything for you
I'll do anything for

[Verse 2]
I made a call to my best friend
I said I feel like I've been stuck here at this dead end
She said, "Okay, but you're amazing."
"Of course, things will get hard, but you gotta have some patience through the highs and lows."
"You'll never be alone; you know that you've got me, and the rest is sticks and stones," she said
"Work sucks" I said
"I know, but keep your head up, darling, or you'll miss out on the show."

[Pre-Chorus]
I said, "I love you so, don't give up on us now."
"I know you feel it in your soul."

[Chorus]
These changes, scared of growing up and so afraid that I won't make it
Rearrange us, I'm all out of love and trying hard to keep on faking
But for you, I'll do anything for you
I'll do anything for you
