Getting Older by Emma Oliver Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2020

[Verse 1]
Is there anybody out there
Who can hear me?
I'm stuck inside a nightmare
It's never ending
Some days, I'm fine
Other days, I have trouble breathing
Is there anybody out there
Who can hear me?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I don't know where to go or what to do

[Chorus]
Maybe I'm out of my mind but I think I've been like this forever
Maybe I don't understand, I'm just not as put together
'Cause in my mind, I'm not safe and I'm only getting older
(And I'm only getting older)
So let me put my head on your shoulder

[Verse 2]
Is there a way above the surface?
'Cause I've been sinking for a while now
And every time that I get close
The weight just pulls me back into this shitty town
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know where to go or what to do, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Maybe I'm out of my mind but I think I've been like this forever
Maybe I don't understand, I'm just not as put together
'Cause in my mind, I'm not safe and I'm only getting older
(And I'm only getting older)
So let me put my head on your shoulder
(So let me put my head on your shoulder)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Let me put my head on your shoulder)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
Hi
So I just got off the phone with you
Yeah, so I'm on the beach, right
And everything's so peaceful, and
The stars are, you know, really close to me, and
For the first time in my life, I see a
Like one of the light towers
'Cause all I can think about right now is how much I need you here
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
Maybe I'm out of my mind but I think I've been like this forever
Maybe I don't understand, I'm just not as put together
'Cause in my mind, I'm not safe and I'm only getting older
(And I'm only getting older)
So let me put my head on your shoulder
