[Verse 1]
You say I've changed
Maybe you should try it too
The old me (Old me) was okay (Okay)
But I think it's time for something new
[Pre-Chorus]
Brush my hair in the mirror, maybe I'll dye it red
Heard that color is dated, but I don't care what they said
It's the end of an era, I put my fist in the air
And then I look in the camera and tell 'em
[Chorus]
"Let the credits roll"
When the lights come on and they play that song
Sayin' it's time to let the curtains close
This ain't a comin'-of-age anymore
So let the credits roll
[Verse 2]
I watch (I watch) a montagе (A montage)
Of moments I thought the world would еnd
Cut to (Cut to) part two (Part two)
I realized it was in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
Brush my hair in the mirror, maybe I'll dye it blue
Heard that color is dated, but maybe dated is cool
It's the end of an era, I put my fist in the air
And then I look in the camera and tell 'em
[Chorus]
"Let the credits roll"
When the lights come on and they play that song
Sayin' it's time to let the curtains close
This ain't a comin'-of-age anymore
So let the credits roll
When the lights come on and they play that song
Sayin' it's time to let the curtains close
This ain't a comin'-of-age anymore
[Bridge]
I know I've changed, maybe you should go try it too
I'm not the same, so don't expect what you're used to
[Chorus]
Let the credits roll
When the lights come on and they play that song
Sayin' it's time to let the curtains close
This ain't a comin'-of-age anymore
So let the credits roll
[Outro]
