Age.1

[Verse 1] I counted the hours in my palm, But they slipped right through my fingers. The stairs in the old house are creaking, Like strangers’ voices in the dark. On the wall — my childhood shadows, On the floor — a day torn apart. I wanted to hold back this train, But it’s racing away, believe me. [Pre-Chorus] And the older I get, the quieter inside, But the pain still burns just the same. I look in the mirror — it’s not me, Someone else is living there. [Chorus] With age Time flies by unnoticed With age The heart burns, but there’s no reply With age I’m screaming into the void (With age) And I keep moving on anyway [Verse 2] Your letters lie under the bed, Yellowed, just like my fear. I laugh, but there’s glass in my throat, Words can’t pull it out. The city presses down with wet concrete, Day replaces a faceless day. I chased after my own reflection, But all that’s left is a shadow. [Pre-Chorus] And the older I get, the louder the silence, It weighs heavy on my chest. I wanted to understand it all, But there’s no turning back. [Chorus] With age Time flies by unnoticed With age The heart burns, but there’s no reply With age I’m screaming into the void (With age) And I keep moving on anyway [Bridge] I didn’t get wiser — I just got colder, I learned this taste way too soon. Half of my dreams are already in the past, But I still haven’t given up. If tomorrow takes away from me Another piece of silence, I’ll leave this voice inside of you, So we remember who we were. [Final Chorus] With age Time flies by unnoticed With age The heart burns, but there’s no reply With age I’m screaming into the void (With age) And I keep moving on anyway With age Time flies by unnoticed With age I’m living as long as I burn
