We're Not Kids in Love Anymore

We're not kids in love anymore
I won't die without you,
Or lie sleepless without hearing your voice.
I'm not dumb enough to smile for you, use the words you want
In the tone you want.
Cause after a while, I'll go back to being the painting on the wall
You glance when you come home.
And after a while, I'll be the stranger on the phone
You have to share your day with,
And when you see me, I'll be the body you once knew.

Yeah, we're not kids in love anymore,
And I don't believe we're good anymore
It's a shame it had to come to this,
But if I'd known better than this,
We'd have been the one's to be
But you're just you and you can't see me,
Cause we're not kids in love anymore,
No, we're not kids in love anymore.

You let me think I messed up your life,
And that we could have had it all
And that you could ever feel the madness
And pain and desperation I felt in longing for you.
Your hands pulled me up every time I drowned in a silent abyss
Oh wait, that wasn't you, that was me.
You played it well, but I can see through you, baby,
Loneliness and the thought of losing it all
Makes winners from losers and lovers from cynics
And that's what's going on here, I know.

Cause, we're not kids in love anymore,
And I don't believe we're good anymore
It's a shame it had to come to this,
But if I'd known better than this,
We'd have been the one's to be
But you're just you and you can't see me.

And since we're not kids in love anymore,
Let's not kid ourselves for love's sake anymore,
Be at peace and do the job you know you have to do
It's not me you want, listen to your mind it's time to go
Cause we're not kids in love anymore
No, we're not kids in love anymore.

No, we're not kids in love anymore.

Fear


Your deepest fear is not that you will fail. Your innermost, darkest, denied, and buried fear is that you will not be able to get back on your feet after you fall. If you’re asking yourself who you are, you know the answer. No one can give you the answer of reassurance. It’s your belief, your own selfish belief, that you are brilliant, talented, and worthy, that makes you so uncomfortable. After all, brilliant, talented, and worthy people don’t fail, do they? Your small mistakes are the dribbles of a ball that every legendary player repeated a million times before the ball obeyed his every command. Playing small does no good for anyone, or the world. Disbelief is only overcome by belief, not by reassurance. You were born to manifest the beauty and grace of the mind, soul, and body. Liberate your mind from your fear. Believe, and you will realize that you knew you could win all along.

Be silent pain, tick tock tick tock
My phone's on silent, I don't want calls from you
From having everything, and then,
Back to feeling as vacant as vacuum.
Be silent pain, tick tock tick tock
I could boast of all the things I have
But you oh so break me like a first love
Be gone. And another record isn't going drown you away.
I always thought it's me that did it, so tell me, is it?
Be silent pain, tick tock tick tock
I don't like the words you sing
I can't be addicted to your melody anymore
Give me back, to me
Be silent pain, tick tock tick tock.
