lyrics

It turns out getting older
It just means staying alive
It’s something that I’ve struggled with
I’ve found so hard sometimes

Wondered if I want to live
Or if I’d rather die
And every night I judge myself
By the lines around my eyes

When I was young, I just assumed
Things happened by surprise
That life was how it meant to be
That youth would get me by

But the years they kept on coming
And time kept ticking on
Don’t know what I was meant to do
Or if I did it wrong

I thought there’d be these great big halls
Exhausted nights in vans
That I would see the whole world
Through the eyes of my band

That people would adore me
For longer than one night
Might be somebody’s hero
Might change somebody’s life

I don’t know if it’s bitterness
That makes me sing this song
I don’t know what it is
Or where it all went wrong

I had a sense of humour
And I don’t know where that’s gone
The lines they just get deeper
And time

Keeps ticking on
