Same Old Kid

[Verse 1]
Today's your birthday
I put a candle in a cake
But I just felt too fake
So I won't say anything at all
I'll let you think that I forgot
I did not

[Pre-Chorus]
And if you're asking
An eleven out of ten
You would fuck me up again
Yeah, I lost a friend
But it's better in the end

[Chorus]
I should let it all wash over
Pretend it doesn't hurt like this
I know we grew up, got older
But I'm still the same old kid
I don't wanna wake up holding
On to everything you did
I know we grew up, got older
But I'm still the same old kid

[Post-Chorus]
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da
(I'm still the same old kid)
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da

[Verse 2]
18 and waiting
I'm glad I didn't hold my breath
By now I would be dead
I haven't heard from you in years
But your name still unlocks old fears
They don't disappear

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why, why, why
Why can't I just be indifferent?
Thought it could be fixed by distance
But the thought of you is so persistent
Oh, I know, I know, I know

[Chorus]
I should let it all wash over
Pretend it doesn't hurt like this
I know we grew up, got older
But I'm still the same old kid
I don't wanna wake up holding
On to everything you did
I know we grew up, got older
But I'm still the same old kid

[Bridge]
I could let it all
I could let it all
I could let it all wash over
I could let it all
I could let it all
I could let it all wash over

[Pre-Chorus]
So if you're asking
An eleven out of ten
You would fuck me up again
Yeah, I lost a friend
But it's better in the end

[Post-Chorus]
Da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da, da-da
