Getting Older Lyrics – Billie Eilish
Getting Older Lyrics
I’m gettin older I think i’m agin’ 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
Too bad they’re usually deranged Last week i realized i crave pity When i re tell 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 Every 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 Some day i’ll be bored of It’s so weird-d-d-d
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 wished the word i promised Would depend on what
I’m giving not on his permission Wasn’t my decision to be abused
Things i once enjoyed Just keep me employed now Things i’m longing for Someday i’ll be bored of It’s so weird-d-d-d
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 Did things i didn’t wanna Was too afraid to tell ya But now i think it’s time
