Verse 1

Are we young anymore? 

We’re re all getting older by the hour, the hour

Does it hurt anymore?

All the petty things that once scarred our hearts, our thoughts.


Prechorus 

Each day's a little bit longer 

Everything just hits harder

This thing that we're all dreaming for

It’s getting closer by the dawn

Every moment starts to count

Like laughing till we fall down

Letting go is getting harder

Is this what happens when we get older?


Chorus

Older, we’re all turning older,

Nostalgia’s around us

It surrounds us

Hold on, we'll get through this together

Don't have to fall or falter

Will this last forever after?


Verse 2

Where did our childhood go

We find ourselves wondering when we're alone

We’ll stand tall, looking at

The pain that made us strong,

The toil that we all took upon,

To build ourselves a future.


(prechorus and chorus)


Bridge

Hard to imagine

All this ends right here

in a short timespan

Scared to think about

All the memories

I might forget.

The best is yet to come,

it all lies on the road ahead,

Take my hand, let's run

this race together,

Let’s soar to the stars through hardships.
