Joy - Shouldn't I Be Older Lyrics



Joy - Shouldn't I Be Older Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring the Wildfire ]

Couldn't read your mind
Lashed out
Like you did last time
And just like before
I try to be cool about it
Patience flickers out
My words burn the roof of my mouth
Swallow my tongue all the way down
Down, down, quiet
Shouldn't I be older
Shouldn't I be older by now
Wouldn't you have asked me
Asked me what I needed
If you wanted to find out
Shouldn't I be older
Oh You know I'm feeling older
So walk me through these walls
Head first
As the door revolves
And another path opens
Another man crawls
And leaves me standing
I sprint as fast as I can
Pretend that you're a different man
The finish line's close but
I don't want to ever cross it
Shouldn't I be older
Shouldn't I be older by now
Wouldn't you have asked me
Asked me what I needed
If you wanted to find out
Shouldn't I be older
You know I'm feeling older
You made the silence talk
Close doors right before I knocked
Our boundaries' lined with chalk
Along the pavement
Shouldn't I be older by now
Felt another tantrum
Rising to the surface
But I couldn't make a sound
Shouldn't I be older
Shouldn't I be older by now
(Am I just a child?)
Wouldn't you have asked me
Asked about the future
If you wanted to find out
Shouldn't I be older
Oh You know I'm feeling older
Shouldn't I be older by now
Shouldn't I be older by now
