lyrics
Now that you’re older and these days aren’t going
as fast as you might have hoped
and you’re stuck knowing
I’ll take it for granted that I’m stumbling into something new
I see by your face it’s not the best we can do
The sudden swell of the setting and
my lacking sense of direction
are moving hand in hand
Now that you’re older and these days are going
faster than you could have planned
Left with the stain of intention
Office windows and coffee circles
It’s hard to feel like you’re moving through
But I’ll make plans and I’ll start it again
A source of contempt and it’s setting in
It’s hurting your wasted potential
It’s a curse and a blessing
it won’t set you free
as fast as you might have hoped
and you’re stuck knowing
I’ll take it for granted that I’m stumbling into something new
I see by your face it’s not the best we can do
The sudden swell of the setting and
my lacking sense of direction
are moving hand in hand
Now that you’re older and these days are going
faster than you could have planned
Left with the stain of intention
Office windows and coffee circles
It’s hard to feel like you’re moving through
But I’ll make plans and I’ll start it again
A source of contempt and it’s setting in
It’s hurting your wasted potential
It’s a curse and a blessing
it won’t set you free

A pop-punk album full of both angst and maturity. A lot of this album is about growing up, but I've been consistently coming back to this album for over 5 years and it never gets old.
