"Act My Age" lyrics

"Act My Age"

So tell me when did it start falling apart?
Everything that I know
Hitting me hard caught me off guard
Where did all the time go?

Days are getting colder
When I think of getting older
I go back to when I had no doubts
Thought those times would last forever
Took a good look in the mirror
Better get my shit together now

Wish that I could slow this down
I gotta face it now
Wish you were still around

So tell me when did it start falling apart?
Everything that I know
Hitting me hard caught me off guard
Where did all the time go?
I can feel those easy days slip away as
Memories fade nothing's the same
Guess I'd better act my age

Filled with innocence
But lately nothing's making sense
I try to get it right but don't know how
Took it all for granted
Guess I didn't understand it
They say that youth is wasted on the young

So tell me when did it start falling apart?
Everything that I know
Hitting me hard caught me off guard
Where did all the time go?
I can feel those easy days slip away as
Memories fade nothing's the same
Guess I'd better act my age

I miss the days when we were younger
'Cause now I feel like I'm going under
Somehow time slipped through our fingers
Yeah I miss the days miss the days
When we were younger

So tell me when did it start falling apart?
Everything that I know
Hitting me hard caught me off guard
Where did all the time go?
I can feel those easy days slip away as
Memories fade nothing's the same
Guess I'd better act my age
