Lyrics

1.I’m getting older
2.I think I’m aging well
3.I wish someone had told me, I’d be doing this by myself
4.There’s reasons that I’m thankful
5.There’s a lot I’m grateful for
6.But it’s different when a stranger’s always waiting at your door
7.Which is ironic
8.‘Cause the strangers seem to want me more
9.Than anyone before (Anyone before)
10.Too bad, they’re usually deranged11.
12.Last week, I realized I crave pity
13.When I retell a story, I make everything sound worse
14.Can’t shake the feeling that I’m just bad at healing
15.And maybe that’s the reason every sentence sounds rehearsed
16.Which is ironic
17.Because when I wasn’t honest
18.I was still being ignored (Lying for attention, just to get neglection)
19.Now we’re estranged20.
21.Things I once enjoyed
22.Just keep me employed now
23.Things I’m longing for
24.Someday, I’ll be bored of
25.It’s so weird
26.That we care so much, until we don’t27.

28.I’m getting’ older
29.I’ve got more on my shoulders
30.But I’m getting better at admitting when I’m wrong
31.I’m happier than ever
32.At least, that’s my endeavor
33.To keep myself together and prioritize my pleasure
34.‘Cause to be honest
35.I just wish that, what I promised
36.Would depend on what I’m given’ (Not on his permission)
37.(Wasn’t my decision) To be abused38.
39.Things I once enjoyed
40.Just keep me employed now
41.Things I’m longing for, someday, I’ll be bored of
42.It’s so weird
43.That we care so much, until we don’t
44.But next week
45.I hope I’m somewhere laughing
46.For anybody asking, I promise I’ll be fine
47.I’ve had some trauma, did things I didn’t wanna
48.Was too afraid to tell ya, but now, I think it’s time
