This week’s song: Acting My Age by The Academic

LYRICS

I’m not avoiding you, I’m waiting
I’m not so good at confrontation
I’m not afraid to say I’m shaking
Wish I could start a conversation, oh yeah

You don’t know how lucky you are
You don’t know what’s coming next
You don’t know how lucky you a-a-are
I know accidents happen
I played my part
I know accidents happen
And it breaks my heart

I never thought I’d tell myself
It’s time I should start acting my age
I know I’ve done some silly things
I’ve made a few mistakes on the way
But I’ve never been on CNN
I’ve never had to cover my face
I wanna make it up to you
I just gotta start acting my age, my age

I’m not exactly what you wanted
I always took your love for granted
Pull me over, check for damage
And drive away like it’s a challenge, oh yeah

I know accidents happen
I played my part
I never thought I’d tell myself
It’s time I should start acting my age
I know I’ve done some silly things
I’ve made a few mistakes on the way
But I’ve never been on CNN
I’ve never had to cover my face
I wanna make it up to you
I just gotta start acting my age, my age

You don’t know how lucky you are
You don’t know what’s coming next
You don’t know how lucky you are
I know accidents happen
And it breaks my heart

I never thought I’d tell myself
It’s time I should start acting my age
I know I’ve done some silly things
I’ve made a few mistakes on the way
But I’ve never been on CNN
I’ve never had to cover my face
I wanna make it up to you
I just gotta start acting my age, my age
