0:13The walls between
0:16You and I
0:19Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight
0:24The space between
0:27Our calm and rage
0:30Started growing shorter disappearing slowly day after day
0:36I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
0:42You were waiting for me too
0:45And it makes me wonder
0:48The older I get
0:51Will I get over it
0:53It's been way too long for the times we missed
0:56I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
1:00The older I get
1:02Maybe I'll get over it
1:04It's been way too long for the times we missed
1:07I can't believe it still hurts like this
1:18The time between
1:21Those cutting words
1:24Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt
1:30Do you believe
1:33That time heals all wounds
1:36It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you
1:41I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
1:47You were waiting for me too
1:50And it makes me wonder
1:53The older I get
1:56Will I get over it
1:58It's been way too long for the times we missed
2:01I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
2:06The older I get
2:08Maybe I'll get over it
2:10It's been way too long for the times we missed
2:13I can't believe it still hurts like this
2:18What was I waiting for
2:21I should've taken less and given you more
2:25I should've weathered the storm
2:26I need to say so bad
2:29What were you waiting for
2:32This could have been the best we ever had
2:41The older I get
2:43Will I get over it
2:45It's been way too long for the times we missed
2:48I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
2:53The older I get
2:55Maybe I'll get over it
2:57It's been way too long for the times we missed
3:00I can't believe it still hurts like this
3:08I'm just getting older
3:11I'm not getting over you I'm trying to
3:17I wish it didn't hurt like this
3:21It's been way too long for the times we missed
3:24I can't believe it still hurts like this
The walls between
You and I
Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight
The space between
Our calm and rage
Started growing shorter   disappearing slowly day after day
I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
You were waiting for me too
And it makes me wonder
The older I get
Will I get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
The older I get
Maybe I'll get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this
The time between
Those cutting words
Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt
Do you believe
That time heals all wounds
It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you
I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
You were waiting for me too
And it makes me wonder
The older I get
Will I get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
The older I get
Maybe I'll get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this
What was I waiting for
I should've taken less and given you more
I should've weathered the storm
I need to say so bad
What were you waiting for
This could have been the best we ever had
The older I get
Will I get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
The older I get
Maybe I'll get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this
I'm just getting older
I'm not getting over you I'm trying to
I wish it didn't hurt like this
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this
