Paper Aeroplanes - Not as Old as You Think lyrics

Saw your picture by the mirror Your eyes were brighter from far away, you said: Since you joined us, the city circus You lost your purpose and wilder ways, but they're still Underneath the surface, down beneath the dust, And that is 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 Who live in love songs and dreams So lean in to the moment and capture the scene You're not as old as you think Just don't let it take a lifetime to realise it Magazine says Your life's wasted But you could save it with beauty cream They don't know These lines and spaces across our faces are Maps and memories of where we've been Don't let them play 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 Who live in love songs and dreams So lean in to the moment and capture the scene You're not as old as you think Just don't let it take a lifetime to realise 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 Who live in love songs and dreams So lean in to the moment and capture the scene You're not as old as you think Just don't let it take a lifetime to realise it.
