"Older" lyrics

"Older"

I am older now
I am a stranger in my skin
Seen this all play out
And I don't know where it all fits in Time plays its part
You try to dodge it at the start
Time plays its role
And you'll learn it as you go

So how is love meant to exist
When it only seems to slip
Where can you go to find some rest
When it's all inside your head I do not know
I will not guess again

I am older now
Oh, I can feel it deep within
My light has not burnt out

But it's grown dangerously dim
Time's played its part
Like a soldier's perfect march
Time's played its role
How I've begged for it to slow

Still how is love meant to exist
When it only seems to slip
Where can you go to find some rest
When it's all inside your head I do not know
I will not guess again
I do not know
I will not guess again
