Getting Older - Adam Lambert
Composed by:Billie Eilish O'Connell/Finneas Baird O'Connell
It's so weird
I'm getting older I think I'm aging well
I wish someone had told me I'd be doing this by myself
There's reasons that I'm thankful there's a lot I'm grateful for
But it's different when a stranger's always waiting at your door
Which is ironic 'cause the strangers seem to want me more
Than anyone before
Anyone before
Too bad they're usually deranged
Last week I realized I crave pity
When I retell a story I make everything sound worse
Can't shake the feeling that I'm just bad at healing
And maybe that's the reason why each sentence sounds rehearsed
Which is ironic because when I wasn't honest
I was still being ignored
Lying for attention just to get neglection
Now we're estranged
Things I once enjoyed
Just keep me employed now
Things I'm longing for
Someday I'll be bored of
It's so weird oh it's so weird
That we care so much until we don't
I'm getting older I've got more on my shoulders
But I'm getting better at admitting when I'm wrong
I'm happier than ever at least that's my endeavor
To keep myself together and prioritize my pleasure
'Cause to be honest I just wish that what I promise
Would depend on what I'm given
Not on his permission
Wasn't my decision
To be abused
Things I once enjoyed
Ah
Just keep me employed now
Things I'm longing for
Ah
Someday I'll be bored of
It's so weird so weird
Oh we care so much until we don't
Yeah oh oh oh ooh
That we care so much
Until we don't
But next week I hope I'm somewhere laughing
For anybody asking I promise I'll be fine
I've had some trauma felt things I didn't wanna
Was too afraid to tell ya but now I think it's time
