Saw your picture, by the mirror
Your eyes were brighter from far away, you said
Since you joined this city circus
You lost your purpose and wilder ways but they're still
Underneath the surface, down beneath the dust
And there lies all that you've lost
You're not as old as you think
You're not as frayed at the seams
It's not as hard to be perfect
As you've been led to believe
Not just imaginary people
Living love songs and dreams
So lean into the moment and capture the scene
You're not as old as you think
Just don't let it take a lifetime to realize it
Magazine says, your life iss wasted
But you can save it with beauty creams, they don't know
These lines and spaces, across our faces are
Maps and memories of where we've been
Don't let them prey upon you, don't believe the hype
Don't let it weigh on your mind
You're not as old as you think
You're not as frayed at the seams
It's not as hard to be perfect
As you've been led to believe
Not just imaginary people
Living love songs and dreams
So lean into the moment and capture the scene
You're not as old as you think
Just don't let it take a lifetime to realize it
You've got a body of its own design
You're not a number in a chorus line
You're out of rhythm but you still have some time
You're not as old as you think
You're not as frayed at the seams
It's not as hard to be perfect
As you've been led to believe
Not just imaginary people
Living love songs and dreams
So lean into the moment and capture the scene
You're not as old as you think
Just don't let it take a lifetime to realize it
To realize it
Not as old as you think, so don't let it take a lifetime
