Jim James - We Ain’t Getting Any Younger, Pt. 2

You got the whole wide world
Laid out in front of you
You can talk about it all you want
But what you gonna do
Time's your oyster
The grave is always getting closer
We ain't gettin' any younger
We ain't gettin' any younger
We ain't gettin' any younger
We ain't gettin' any younger

Looked too long
Went too far
Fell off the edge of the world
Things went south
Time ran out
Fell off the edge of the world
Seasons changed
Time got strange
Fell off the edge of the world
We got close to the source
For better or worse
Fell off the edge of the world

You got the whole wide world
Laid out in front of you
And you can talk about it all you want
But what the fuck you gonna do?
Time's your oyster
The grave is always getting closer
We ain't gettin' any younger
We ain't gettin' any younger
We ain't gettin' any younger
We ain't gettin' any younger

And you take it for granted
Until it's taken away
We're all pressed out the same mold
The story's already been told
This world is war and blood
When it could have been love
When it could have been love
And are you willing to forget
That this ever happened?
And let a new world start again?

Peace written to pieces
Peace written to pieces
Peace written to pieces
Peace written to pieces

We gotta put it back together again (peace written to pieces)
We're about to get it again (peace written to pieces)
We gotta put it back together again (peace written to pieces)
Put it back together again (peace written to pieces)
