Growing Up Is Getting Old

Playing Tetris with my feelings
Tryna keep them all inside
Hollow shadows and my soul is spilling over
I'm out of time, mmm-mmh
Closing every door, wanna be alone
Lonely is a way that I survive
Sick of wanting more, sitting on the floor
Wondering where all my feelings go

Nervous system's aching
Growing up is getting old

Don't get it
There's an ocean of emotion that I'm carrying inside
I am cautious
'Cause I've never understood how so much can fit in little me
Star-crossed soul
And I'm used to letting go
Sink deeper in the flow of it
My demons know exactly where my fears
Are hiding all my tears

I'm torn by nervous system's aching
Growing up is getting old
Anxiety is draining
Getting up is growing old

And if I ever take that second to leave my worries behind
Maybe I could tread the waters of time
Get out of my mind

And growing up is getting old
Growing up is getting old
Getting up is growing old

If your world is breaking
And growing up is getting old
Know that you're worth saving
And getting up iѕ аll you've got

Отрастването става скучен

Играя Тетрис с чувствата си
Опитвам се да ги задържа всичките вътре
Празни сенки и душата ми прелива
Нямам време, ммм-мм
Затварям всички врати, искам да бъда сам
Самотата е начинът, по който оцелявам
Досада ми е да искам още, седейки на пода
Чудя се къде отиват всичките ми чувства

Нервната система ме боли
Отрастването става скучно

Не разбирам го
Има океан от емоции, които нося в себе си
Съм внимателен
Защото никога не съм разбирал как толкова много може да се събере в мен
Звезден дух
И съм свикнал да се отпускам
Потъвай по-дълбоко в потока на това
Демоните ми точно знаят къде се крият всичките ми страхове
Съкровените всичките ми сълзи

Раздирам се от болката в нервната система
Отрастването става скучно
Тревожността изтощава
Става скучно да te събуждам

И ако някога си взема тази секунда да оставя притесненията зад гърба си
Може би ще мога да стъпя върху водите на времето
Да изляза извън моя разум

Отрастването означава стареене
Стареенето означава стареене
Да стана означава да остарея

Ако светът ти се разпада
И отрастването става скучно
Знай, че си струва да бъдеш спасен
И да се изправиш е всичко, което имаш

Kasvaminen on vanhenemista

Pelaan tetristä tunteideni kanssa
Yritän pitää ne kaikki sisällä
Ontot varjot ja sieluni valuu yli
Olen myöhässä, mmm-mmh
Suljen jokaisen oven, haluan olla yksin
Yksinäisyys on tapani selviytyä
Kyllästynyt kaipaamaan lisää, istun lattialla
Mietin, mihin kaikki tunteeni katoavat

Hermostoon särkee
Kasvaminen on vanhenemista

En ymmärrä sitä
Minulla on tunteiden valtameri mitä kannan sisälläni
Olen varovainen
Koska en ole koskaan ymmärtänyt, kuinka pieneen minuun mahtuu niin paljon
Tähtien ristissä oleva sielu
Ja olen tottunut päästämään irti
Uppoa syvemmälle sen virtauksessa
Demonini tietävät tarkalleen, missä pelkoni
Piilottelevat kaikki kyyneleeni

Hermoston särkeminen repii minua
Kasvaminen vanhenee
Ahdistus tyhjentää
Nouseminen on vanhenemista

Ja jos koskaan käytän sen hetken jättääkseni huoleni taakseen
Ehkä voisin tallata ajan vesillä
Mene pois mielestäni

Ja kasvaminen on vanhenemista
Kasvaminen on vanhenemista
Nouseminen on vanhenemista

Jos maailmasi hajoaa
Ja kasvaminen on vanhenemista
Tiedä, että olet säästämisen arvoinen
Ja nouseminen on kaikki mitä ѕinullа on

Aufwachsen bedeutet alt werden

Spiele Tetris mit meinen Gefühlen
Versuche sie alle in mir zu behalten
Leere Schatten und meine Seele schwappt über
Ich habe keine Zeit mehr, mmm-mmh
Schliesse jede Türe, will alleine sein
Einsam ist eine Art, mit der ich überlebe
Satt mehr zu wollen, ich sitze auf dem Boden
Wundere mich, wo alle meine Gefühle hin sind

Das Nervensystem schmerzt
Aufwachsen bedeutet alt werden

Ich verstehe es nicht
Da ist ein Ozean voller Emotionen, den ich in mir trage
Ich bin vorsichtig
Weil ich nie verstanden habe, wie soviel in mich passen kann
Seele unter Sternen
Und ich bin es mir gewohnt loszulassen
Sinke tiefer in dessen Flow
Meine Dämonen wissen genau wo meine Ängste
Meine Tränen verstecken

Ich bin vom Schmerzen des Nervensystems zerrissen
Aufwachsen heisst alt werden
Besorgnis ist erschöpfend
Aufwachsen heisst alt werden

Und wenn ich jemals diese Sekunde nehme um meine Sorgen hinter mir zu lassen
Vielleicht könnte ich die Gewässer der Zeit betreten
Raus aus meinem Kopf

Und aufwachsen heisst alt werden
Aufwachsen heisst alt werden
Aufstehen heisst alt werden

Wenn deine Welt zusammenbricht
Und aufwachsen alt werden bedeutet
Wisse, dass du es wert bist, gerettet zu werden
Und aufstehen alles ist, was du hаѕt

Creșterea devine plictisitoare

Joc Tetris cu sentimentele mele
Încerc să le țin pe toate înăuntru
Umbre goale și sufletul meu se revarsă
Am rămas fără timp, mmm-mmh
Închid fiecare ușă, vreau să fiu singur
Singurătatea este modul în care supraviețuiesc
Sunt sătul să vreau mai mult, stând pe podea
Mă întreb unde se duc toate sentimentele mele

Sistemul nervos îmi doare
Creșterea devine plictisitoare


Există un ocean de emoții pe care le port înăuntru
Sunt precaut
Pentru că nu am înțeles niciodată cum poate să încapă atât de mult în mine
Suflet predestinat
Și sunt obișnuit să las să plece
Să mă scufund mai adânc în fluxul lor
Demonii mei știu exact unde îmi ascund temerile
Ascunzând toate lacrimile mele

Sunt sfâșiat de durerile sistemului nervos
Creșterea devine plictisitoare
Anxietatea mă epuizează
Să mă ridic devine plictisitor

Și dacă vreodată iau acea clipă să-mi las griji în urmă
Poate aș putea naviga apele timpului
Să-mi ies din minte

Și creșterea devine plictisitoare
Creșterea devine plictisitoare
Să mă ridic devine plictisitor

Dacă lumea ta se destramă
Și creșterea devine plictisitoare
Știi că meriți să fii salvat
Și să te ridici eѕte tot ce аi

After the bearded lady Conchita Wurst won in 2014, a Russian politician said: "The result showed supporters of European integration their European future - a bearded girl". Conchita's response: "When an entire nation is scared that a young gay man with a beard who likes dressing up in women's clothes is so able to sway opinion that he could bring the whole society to the brink, I can only take it as a compliment!"
