Getting Older

You thought you'd thrown your life away
Neglects, abuse in its own way
You haven't come this far
To end up who you are

Dark days and you came face to face
Your dreams, they ran in second place
There's life outside that door
Old fear kills slow but sure

And time won't wait for you to make
Decisions that lurk in the dark
While breaking each other's hearts
And we're just getting older

You hear that voice inside your head
Don't drown out what is being said
So blue, yet seeing red
Alive yet feeling dead

And time won't wait for you to make
Decisions that lurk in the dark
While breaking each other's hearts
And we're just getting older

Always giving, never taking
Seems you walk through days just faking
Pretending everything will be okay

You're no mere chauffeur, cook or maid
A force of nature unafraid
Cold stares from so-called friends
Made through a broken lens

And time won't wait for you to make
Decisions that lurk in the dark
While breaking each other's hearts
It's time to make a new start
And we're just getting older
