Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, every time I think I'm growing up
I find out that I just slip back
I got it all wrong, you know it
I feel younger than I did when I was younger
On a backwoods track
[Verse 2]
I thought by now, I could've figured it all out
Instead, I'm further back
It feels kind of stupid, but
I feel sixteen in my head, but I guess
It's only five years back
[Verse 3]
But I won't see those signs
It took so long, but you were always on my mind
Yeah
For all the times I tried to take a little time for myself
I'm just growing old alone, again
But I find, in my mind, that I'm not
Time is running out, and I just wanna say I'm sorry now
Before I'm all alone again
And I'm broken and cold
The aging superhero in me is tired
'Cause he's lived too fast for too long, and he still
Longs to be inspired
[Verse 4]
I feel old, feel broke, feel cold
And I can't fight back, it sounds so stupid, ah
But it's gone, this train won't run
Guess it must be the track
[Verse 5]
But I won't see those signs
It took so long, but you were always on my mind
Yeah
For all the times I tried to take a little time for myself
I'm just growing old alone, again
But I find, in my mind, that I'm not
Time is running out, and I just wanna say I'm sorry now
Before I'm all alone again
And I'm broken and cold
[Verse 6]
De-do, de-do
De-da-de-da, de-dum
De-da-de-dum
Di-do, de-de-dum
De-da-de-da, de-dum
[Verse 7]
But I won't see those signs
It took so long, but you were always on my mind
Yeah
For all the times I tried to take a little time for myself
I'm just growing old alone, again
But I find, in my mind that I'm not
Time is running out, and I just wanna say I'm sorry now
Before I'm all alone again
And I'm broken and cold
The aging superhero in me is tired
'Cause he's lived too fast for too long, and he still
Longs to be inspired
