//Lyrics//
woke up in the same clothes i wore yesterday
my head is pounding now, i lost my phone again
i found a gray hair and i thought about
when my dad was my age he was married by now
and sometimes i wonder how things would turn out
if i stayed in school, never left my home town

i don't do the things i'm supposed to
over think and under focus
emotional rollercoaster
keep it all on my shoulders
hoping no one will notice
i'm no good at getting older

last year i almost threw in the towel
i was tired of suits telling me what to write about
yeah but then i remembered the girl from rhode island
who said that our music saved her life
and i'm not a saint but i still talk to jesus
i hope he knows that i really mean it

i don't do the things i'm supposed to
over think and under focus
emotional rollercoaster
keep it all on my shoulders
hoping no one will notice
i'm no good at getting older

i called my dad one night when i was a wreck
he said, "at your age, i was a mess so don't
let it all weigh down on your shoulders
things will work out the way they're supposed to
it's just part of getting older.”
