(album: You'll Get It When You're Older - 2023)

Don't you miss those songs they'd play on the radio, love?
I guess we lost that magic, wish we bottled it up
I'm afraid (Afraid of it lately)
They were the days (Won't get them back, baby)
I'm afraid (Afraid of it lately)

I wonder if that's how you felt when she was off drugs
Before you moved to Venus, left her friends up on Mars
I know you're afraid (Afraid of it lately)
That you were to blame (Blame yourself, baby)
I know you're afraid (Afraid of it lately)

But I read it in a magazine, it's all the rage
To throw away your life for chasing higher grades
So love a little harder, live another place
She probably would've done it anyway
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

No, we've not known each other since she left and went dark
I learned how much you missed her when you cried in my arms
It was never the same (Never the same, never the same)
Time keeps ticking away (Ticking away, ticking away)
But it's never the same (Never the same, never the same)
Quite the same, baby

But I read it in a magazine, it's all the rage
To throw away your life for chasing higher grades
So love a little harder, live another place
She probably would've done it either way
So you could take away the internet or all the phones
Pick her better friends or leave her alone
But even if you gave the girl another name
It probably would've happened anyway
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Na-a-ah
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Na-na-na-na-na

But I read it in a magazine, it's all the rage
To throw away your life for chasing higher grades
So love a little harder, live another place
She probably would've done it either way
So you could take away the internet or all the phones
Pick her better friends or leave her alone
But even if you gave the girl another name
It probably would've happened anyway
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
