Older--Alec Benjamin Lyrics ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm not prepared for the future so many things that I just don't know I cut my hair, bought a new shirt, new pair of shoes and its time to go I finally found an apartment signed a lease on a car this month I can't go back to the start now time doesn't slow down I'm on my own guess my childhood is over now I'm taking down my posters and I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster that's my closest thing to closure I cant stop this roller coaster I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older Guess my childhood is over now I'm taking down my posters and I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October that is my closets thing to closure I cant stop this roller coaster I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older lalalalalallalalalallalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalal never thought that I'd be twenty and 30 don't seem so far away I know I gotta make a little money then maybe find somebody to call my own mmm I'm ready but I can-'t go back in time I know-w its all out of my control now I know guess my childhood is over now I'm taking down my posters and I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster that's my closest thing to closure I cant stop this roller coaster I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older Guess my childhood is over now I'm taking down my posters and I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October that is my closets thing to closure I cant stop this roller coaster I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalal guess my childhood is over one day ill be buying posters for my kids just like my parents did for me its never over they'll grow up and soon enough they'll wish that time would just move slower I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older guess my childhood is over now I'm taking down my posters and I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster that's my closest thing to closure I cant stop this roller coaster I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older Guess my childhood is over now I'm taking down my posters and I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October that is my closets thing to closure I cant stop this roller coaster I'm not ready to get older I'm not ready to get older
