Old Soul

Open my shades to let a little bit of light in No one told me that night fell long ago I close the blinds I'm so sick of these city lights That never show me anything that I want to see And there's nothing around here worth doing So I'll lay in bed and try to sleep What else is there to do There's nothing else to do (There's nothing else to do) But that's alright That's what I'm used to Disappointment never killed a man But it sure takes its toll believe me That was pretty bold for me to say at only 17 But life's made me quite cynical And if it's true what I've been told That stress kills I won't live to be that old I guess I wouldn't mind that (I guess I wouldn't mind that) I've been told to enjoy it while it lasts But I'm not sure if they mean my youth or my happiness If they mean my happiness I failed them long ago If they mean my youth It's too late I'm already an Old Soul But that's alright That's what I'm used to Disappointment never killed a man But it sure takes its toll believe me I feel exhausted but there's still so much that I haven't seen Life's made me quite cynical And if it's true what I've been told That stress kills I won't live to be that old I guess I wouldn't mind that (I guess I wouldn't mind that) If it's true what I've been told That stress kills I won't live to be that old I guess I wouldn't mind that If it's true what I've been told That stress kills I won't live to be that old I guess I wouldn't mind that It's too late for me I'm already an Old Soul (If it's true what I've been told That stress kills I won't live to be that old I guess I wouldn't mind that) I'm already an Old Soul
