3 Years Older Lyrics

You cross the schoolyard with your head held down
And walk the streets under the breaking cloud
With a hundred futures cascading out
It's complicatedYou think of love as just a memory
A fog that smothers you, it's hard to breathe
But when you're on your own, that's when you're free
You're three years older, and you'll always be nowI can feel you more than you really know
I will love you more than I'll ever showThere was a time when someone seemed to care
A tourist in your bed, you left him there
You found a simple life with no one to share
It's not complicatedYou make a list of all your big regrets
You share with people that you never met
You slowly move towards the medicine chest
You're three years older, and you'll always be nowI can feel you more than you really know
I will love you more than I'll ever show
You only have to say, and the world will slip away
From youShame on you for getting older every day
This place is not for you, so why do you still stay?

You stand in with the other fuckers in the rain
Life is not some sinecure for you to claim
You'll have to payI can feel you more than you really know
I will love you more than I'll ever show
You only have to say, and the world will slip away
From you
