SKILLET LYRICS - The Older I Get

"The Older I Get"



The walls between

You and I



Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight



The space between

Our calm and rage

started growing shorter, disappearing slowly day after day



I was sitting there waiting in my room for you

You were waiting for me too

And it makes me wonder



The older I get

Will I get over it

It's been way too long for the times we missed



I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think

The older I get

Maybe I'll get over it

It's been way too long for the times we missed

I can't believe it still hurts like this



The time between

Those cutting words

Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt

Do you believe

That time heals all wounds

It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you



What was I waiting for

I should've taken less and given you more

I should've weathered the storm

I need to say so bad

What were you waiting for

This could have been the best we ever had



[Altro:]

I'm just getting older

I'm not getting over you I'm trying to

I wish it didn't hurt like this

It's been way too long for the times we missed

I can't believe it still hurts like this
