"Lifers Too" lyrics

"Lifers Too"
(feat. The Wonder Years)

So there you are, the hum in your head
Don't love anything you used to
You're worried if you
Can ever find something new
This creeping nostalgia
The wrinkles on your hands
They're singing songs about the 90's
So now I can't forget about me

We don't need this boulder
So we just let it roll
You thought I was a lifer
I never thought I'd get this old

In a TV-family home from 1963
There's marks on the floor from beds where kids used to sleep
But then those kids grew up to give us a world on the brink
And they don't feel guilty for us, so why do I worry all the time?

We don't need this boulder
So we just let it roll
You thought I was a lifer
I never thought I'd get this old

Now I'm back on the search
This can't be all there is
Should we just grow up?
Take care of the kids?
Think about someone else
Instead of who's going first
At the end of the world?

And we don't need this boulder
So we just let it roll
I've got this weight on my shoulders
Can you help me let it go?

And we don't need this boulder
So we just let it roll
You thought I was a lifer
I never thought I'd get this old
