Old souls

They say I would never make it
The more I gave, The less I got
And Life's not easy but you got me
I know I don't deserve this
I've let you down and I'm so sorry
That I've fucked up too many things
Constantly failing, when I was born
They always said: “enjoy your fall”
How many times I wished that I could’ve slowed things down
Oh if I could
I tried to write all my feelings and it always went so bad
From the first songs and our time
To the gin tonic in my hand
Now I break the chains
That held my wings
I’ll escape from this reality
So I pack my bag
And I cannot let it fall
They say I would never make it
The more I gave, the less I got
And Life's not easy but you got me
I know I don't deserve this
I've let you down and I'm so sorry
That I've fucked up too many things
I would love to thank you so much for being there in the first place
But if I am who I am right now I have to thank no one but just me
Despite the years that have passed and now all the innocence is gone
I left the child that I had inside for an apathetic man with an old soul
And maybe I know that there is more than this
So let me breath, just let me live
‘Cause in the end all of your words
Don’t mean a single thing
Take me back when my fragile knees didn't have to feel this weight
Take me back when skating the streets was the first problem everyday
And the girls that we brought to the beach with our sober faces
Then being drunk and alone in the same old empty place
But my bag is packed by years
This is the only chance I get
They say I would never make it
The more I gave, the less I got
And Life's not easy but you got me
I know I don't deserve this
I've let you down and I'm so sorry
That I've fucked up too many things
Life’s not easy but you got me
