“Of age” is the tenth track on the American surf punk band, The Frights' album “you are going to hate this”. Released on February 12, 2016, the song takes the audience through the pain and struggle of growing up and finding yourself.
[Verse 1]
There's times I miss the friends I had
There's times I'm glad they're gone
But I can't explain the feelin'
Of how I watched you all move on
There's days when I forget myself
I don't feel like a man
When my body's full of alcohol
And I'm sleepin' in the van
[Chorus]
And my head aches
And my heart breaks
For you
[Verse 2]
There's times when I'm remembering when I was 17
Man, I should've gone to college
Things aren't looking up for me
If every day could take away
The pain that I have found
Then I'd close my eyes
And walk outside
Hear my favorite sound
[Chorus]
And my head aches
And my heart breaks
For you
[Verse 3]
The hope I gave that fades away
It’s really not that hard to say
You'll miss when your body aches
And you're livin' all alone
There's one thing that I need to do
I'm tryin' to sell out
I could finally pay my rents on time
The kids could shut their mouths
[Bridge]
It's not you, it's me
It's getting hard to breathe
Let's just keep on talkin'
All about me
It's not me, it's you
It's more than I can chew
And I don't know what to do
And I don't know what to do
[Chorus]
And my head aches
And my heart breaks
And my head aches
And my heart breaks
For you
[Verse 4]
Overwhelming
I'm not saying
I have come of age
Everybody
Keeps on telling
Me to make a change
What's the issue
If I miss you
Wish that I could stay
What's the point
If I'm annoyed
I have come of age
[Chorus]
And my head aches
And my heart breaks
And my head aches
And my heart breaks
And my head aches
(Head aches)
And my heart breaks
(Heart breaks)
And my head aches
(Head aches)
And my heart breaks
(Heart breaks)
The Frights released Of Age on Fri Feb 12 2016.
