You're Gonna Get Older
His life wasn't kind to him
His loves were nonexistent
The thought of leaving them all behind...
He's far too persistent
The need to fail was born in him
Too spiteful to resist it
You've spent your pity, hop off the tracks
Before the train comes back to hit you
Don't you know you let it show
Don't you know
Don't you know you let it show
Don't you know I've seen too much smoke
I'm getting older, I'm gonna be older
You're gonna get older, I gotta know
If it gets better, an open letter to the ones who still have hope
I'll be leaving this poor town
I'm going back, I'm going up, I'm going down
Down
The expectations crushing him
The "angst" flows like blood
Applause from the passerbys
Ambition starts to flood...
He only fought for wedding rings
And some notion of love
He only needs to love himself
But he doesn't know who to trust
I'm going back, I'm going down
I'm going back, I'm going down
I'm going back, I'm going down
Dreams of bodies all over the lawn
The kinda dreams that make you wish you were who you wished you were when you're gone
You wish you knew who-
You wished you were when you're gone
You wished you were her-
You wished you were when you're gone
His loves were nonexistent
The thought of leaving them all behind...
He's far too persistent
The need to fail was born in him
Too spiteful to resist it
You've spent your pity, hop off the tracks
Before the train comes back to hit you
Don't you know you let it show
Don't you know
Don't you know you let it show
Don't you know I've seen too much smoke
I'm getting older, I'm gonna be older
You're gonna get older, I gotta know
If it gets better, an open letter to the ones who still have hope
I'll be leaving this poor town
I'm going back, I'm going up, I'm going down
Down
The expectations crushing him
The "angst" flows like blood
Applause from the passerbys
Ambition starts to flood...
He only fought for wedding rings
And some notion of love
He only needs to love himself
But he doesn't know who to trust
I'm going back, I'm going down
I'm going back, I'm going down
I'm going back, I'm going down
Dreams of bodies all over the lawn
The kinda dreams that make you wish you were who you wished you were when you're gone
You wish you knew who-
You wished you were when you're gone
You wished you were her-
You wished you were when you're gone
