Getting Older Songtext
I fell down a wishing well
I fell for a wish from hell
Do it all before everyone else
Now I write my name alone in the waiting room
15 in fluorescent light
Pretty sure they can tell I’m high
And it seems like a blatant lie
That I’m sitting blank
Don’t know what to say
I don’t wanna waste your time
I’m sure that I must seem fine
But these thoughts control my mind
I can’t take another day where I
Cry your eyes out
Let your mother down
Let me know now
Am I just getting older?
I am
I am
I am
I am
Now it’s ten years till it comes to light
And it’s still the worst at night
Guess I keep those memories mine
Fuck CBT and fuck all the meds I chew
My room was a sacred site
Doors closed eyes shut I’m fine
And this emptiness it’s mine
I’m sitting blank
Don’t know what to say
I don’t wanna waste your time
I’m sure that your friends won’t mind
But these thoughts control my mind
I can’t take another day where I
Cry your eyes out
Let your mother down
Let me know now
Am I just getting older?
I am
I am
I am
I am
You say you know but you never know
Why can’t I try just to let it go
I’m tied up tight cause the body knows
I’m still alone
Alone in my bedroom
9-5 I’m wired I relive it all
Eyes shut I cry
Feel my head explode
I hold out hope to forget it all
But I’m stuck on hold
Alone in the waiting room
I fell for a wish from hell
Do it all before everyone else
Now I write my name alone in the waiting room
15 in fluorescent light
Pretty sure they can tell I’m high
And it seems like a blatant lie
That I’m sitting blank
Don’t know what to say
I don’t wanna waste your time
I’m sure that I must seem fine
But these thoughts control my mind
I can’t take another day where I
Cry your eyes out
Let your mother down
Let me know now
Am I just getting older?
I am
I am
I am
I am
Now it’s ten years till it comes to light
And it’s still the worst at night
Guess I keep those memories mine
Fuck CBT and fuck all the meds I chew
My room was a sacred site
Doors closed eyes shut I’m fine
And this emptiness it’s mine
I’m sitting blank
Don’t know what to say
I don’t wanna waste your time
I’m sure that your friends won’t mind
But these thoughts control my mind
I can’t take another day where I
Cry your eyes out
Let your mother down
Let me know now
Am I just getting older?
I am
I am
I am
I am
You say you know but you never know
Why can’t I try just to let it go
I’m tied up tight cause the body knows
I’m still alone
Alone in my bedroom
9-5 I’m wired I relive it all
Eyes shut I cry
Feel my head explode
I hold out hope to forget it all
But I’m stuck on hold
Alone in the waiting room
