WHEN I WAS OLDER |
| When I was older |
| I was a sailor |
| On an open sea |
| But now I'm underwater |
| And my skin is paler |
| Than it should ever be |
| I'm on my back again |
| Dreaming of a time and place |
| Where you and I remain the best of friends |
| Even after all this ends |
| Can we pretend? |
| I'm on my, I'm on my back again |
| It seems more and more |
| Like all we ever do is see |
| How far it bends |
| Before it breaks in half and then |
| We bend it back again |
| Guess I got caught in the middle of it |
| Yes I've been taught, got a little of it |
| In my blood, in my blood |
| Memories burn like a forest fire |
| Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to mud |
| In the flood |
| When I was older |
| I was a sailor |
| On an open sea |
| But now I'm underwater |
| And my skin is paler |
| Than it should ever be |
| I'm watching movies back to back |
| In black and white, I never |
| Seen anybody do it like I do it any better |
| Then going over you, I'm overdue for no endeavors |
| Nobody lonely like I'm lonely and I don't know whether |
| You'd really like it in the limelight |
| You'd sympathize with all the bad guys |
| I'm still a victim in my own right |
| But I'm the villain in my own eyes |
| When I was older |
| I was a sailor |
| On an open sea |
