Older Than My Years
Journey of Fragmented Self: Insights of a Soul Wanderer
Lyrics
The older I get the more I see
The more I age, the greater my understanding becomes
I've been leaving parts of myself
I've been leaving fragments of myself
Everywhere I've been
Everywhere I've traveled, I've left a part of who I am
I left one in the city when I was 15
I left a part of myself in the city at the age of 15
One behind a party and in an art gallery
I left another part at a party and in an art gallery
And I feel I have to say
Expressing the need to communicate or confess
At the end of every day
Reflecting on a recurring feeling at the end of each day
I get this feeling in my bones
A sensation in the bones, possibly a metaphor for deep introspection
Get this feeling like I'm
Feeling older than actual age, expressing weariness
Older than my years and I'm tired
Feeling fatigued, beyond the years in chronological age
I have nothing to fear and yet I'm frightened
A contradiction: having nothing to fear but still feeling frightened
Maybe I've lived one too many lifetimes
Suggesting the possibility of having experienced numerous lifetimes
Always in the wrong place at the wrong time
Frequently finding oneself in unfortunate situations
The closer I get to finding clarity
Approaching a state of clear understanding but struggling to maintain it
The faster that it gets away from me
Clarity slipping away faster as it is approached
Lead me down the rabbit hole to insanity
Metaphorically being led into chaos and irrationality
I've never liked the things that were good for me
Aversion to things beneficial or good for personal growth
And I feel I have to speak
Expressing the need to communicate or confess again
Before you tell me what you need
Requesting understanding before being told what is needed
Please remember that for me
Asking for consideration of personal context
I'm older than my years and I'm tired
Reiterating the feeling of weariness beyond chronological age
I have nothing to fear and yet I'm frightened
Contradiction between having nothing to fear and feeling frightened
Maybe I've lived one too many lifetimes
Continuation of the theme of experiencing multiple lifetimes
Always in the wrong place at the wrong time
Finding oneself consistently in unfortunate situations
Older than my years
Restating the feeling of being older than actual years
Older than my years
Repetition emphasizing the sense of premature aging
I'm older than my years and I'm tired
Reiterating weariness and the contradiction of fear without apparent threat
I have nothing to fear and yet I'm frightened
Restating the paradoxical coexistence of fear and a lack of immediate danger
Maybe I've lived one too many lifetimes
Continuing the exploration of having lived multiple lifetimes
Always in the wrong place at the wrong time
Consistently finding oneself in unfortunate circumstances
