Scared of Getting Older

Is anyone else a little scared of getting older?
'Cause the world's not getting safer and the seas aren't getting colder
Holidays aren't as exciting, games are easier to lose
Your mom doesn't drive you around
And you start to watch the news instead of Blues Clues and Power Rangers
Animals get more endangered
Being a girl gets more dangerous and adults can't explain to us why everything matters a little less
Everything starts to cause you stress
Like bills and work and school and rent
So you wake up and wonder where all the time went
When you were 17 life was evergreen
You made memories and had seven seas to explore
Can we still do that anymore?
Can we live in a way that matters yet keeps us from getting bored?
Can we learn to find happiness when the world rest on our shoulders?
