About

older is the ninth song on the debut studio album by Nashville band Nightly.

This ballad is about the sad reality check that time passes even if you don’t want to. This song takes the daydreaming of being twenty-two and reckless again from the last song, summer, and evolves in a bigger overthinking...

​older Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up in the same clothes I wore yesterday
My head is pounding now, I lost my phone again
I found a grey hair and I thought about
When my dad was my age, he was married by now
Sometimes I wonder how things would turn out
If I stayed in school, never left my hometown

[Chorus]
I don't do the things I'm supposed to
Overthinking, underfocused
Emotional rollercoaster, keep it all on my shoulders
Hoping no one will notice
I'm no good at getting older

[Verse 2]
Last year I almost threw in the towel
I was tired of suits telling me what to write about
Yeah, but then I remembered the girl from Rhode Island
Who said that our music saved her life
And I'm not a saint, but I still talk to Jesus
I hope he knows that I really mean it

[Chorus]
I don't do the things I'm supposed to
Overthinking, underfocused
Emotional rollercoaster, keep it all on my shoulders
Hoping no one will notice
I'm no good at getting older

[Outro]
I called my dad one night when I was a wreck
He said at your age, I was a mess
So don't let it all weigh down on your shoulders
Things will work out the way they're supposed to
It's just part of getting older
