"Older Than I Am" lyrics
"Older Than I Am"
My heart's seen things I wish it didn't
Somewhere I lost some of my innocence
And I miss it
I miss it
Stay up all night thinking it's twisted
My life's been survival of the fittest
But I did it
I did it
I do all my own healing
Manage all of my feelings
I don't ask for help, no
'Cause I don't need it
'Cause I don't need it
Sometimes I wish I could do something stupid
Be kinda reckless while I can
Say I don't give a damn
But I'm older than I am
I could get hurt and get some scars to prove it
Just say to hell with all my plans
'Cause I don't give a damn
But I'm older than I am
Why am I always the one making decisions?
How do I handle the pressure?
I do my best to fake it
But honestly I hate it
I do all my own fighting
I'm who I'ma confide in
Maybe I need help, no
I won't deny it
I won't deny it
Sometimes I wish I could do something stupid
Be kinda reckless while I can
Say I don't give a damn
But I'm older than I am
I could get hurt and get some scars to prove it
Just say to hell with all my plans
'Cause I don't give a damn
But I'm older than I am
Older than I, older than I, older than I
I'm older and I don't give a damn
I'm older than I am

Lennon Stella told Apple Music about "Older Than I Am", "I've never felt more connected to a song, and it's so weird because I didn't write it. [...] When I heard this song for the first time, I was literally sobbing uncontrollably, and I was very quick to put my vocal on it and dive in and make it feel even more like myself."
