The Long Defeat - Living With Regrets (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

Turns out the world was never waiting for us
And now I know how it feels
To realize I'm just like everyone else
Wasn't anything real?
It's sad to say but finally
Reality caught up with me
As hard as it is to believe
The truth is

The older we get
It's hard to admit
But it's scaring me to death
When the only that's getting
Any easier to manage
Has been living with regrets

Well if I knew this was the plan I
Wouldn't have taken you for granted
I told myself that there would always be another chance
But now I'm losing sleep
Because I've left too many words unsaid
Too many kids I knew are dead
Who were younger than me

The older we get
It's hard to admit
But it's scaring me to death
When the only that's getting
Any easier to manage
Has been living with regrets

Didn't notice any of the signs
Til I was already here
You could have looked me in the eye
Could have shouted in my ear
Don't you think it's kinda crazy
How it only gets clear
When you're steady looking
Back in the rear view mirror?
And now I'm thinking of the
Girl that I used to know
You were irreplaceable
I only wish I would have
Told you that before you had to go
Too soon
But I'm still writing songs about you
And I'm still hoping that somebody cares someday
I never speak up when I want to
Because it always seems there's just too much to say

The older we get
It's hard to admit
But it's scaring me to death
When the only that's getting
Any easier to manage
Has been living with regrets

The older we get
It's hard to admit
But it's scaring me to death
When the only that's getting
Any easier to manage
Has been living with regrets
