[00:00.00]WHEN I WAS OLDER (Music Inspired By The Film ROMA) - Billie Eilish
[00:07.57]Lyrics by:Finneas O'Connell/Billie Eilish O'Connell
[00:15.15]Composed by:Finneas O'Connell/Billie Eilish O'Connell
[00:22.73]Produced by:Finneas O'Connell
[00:30.31]When I was older
[00:36.61]I was a sailor
[00:42.65]On an open sea
[00:55.22]But now I'm underwater
[01:01.91]And my skin is paler
[01:07.86]Than it should ever be
[01:16.26]Mhm
[01:28.46]I'm on my back again
[01:33.01]Dreaming of a time and place
[01:34.91]Where you and I remain the best of friends
[01:39.37]Even after all this ends
[01:45.67]Can we pretend
[01:50.75]I'm on my
[01:54.04]I'm on my back again
[01:58.52]It's seeming more and more
[01:59.80]Like all we ever do is see how far it bends
[02:04.84]Before it breaks in half and then
[02:10.23]We bend it back again
[02:14.69]Guess I got caught in the middle of it
[02:17.87]Yes I've been taught
[02:18.96]Got a little of it in my blood
[02:23.64]In my blood
[02:24.58]
[02:27.45]Memories burn like a forest fire
[02:30.63]Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to mud
[02:36.49]In the flood
[02:44.67]When I was older
[02:51.04]I was a sailor
[02:57.02]On an open sea
[03:09.59]But now I'm underwater
[03:16.27]And my skin is paler
[03:22.35]Than it should ever be
[03:31.71]I'm watching movies back to back in black and white I never
[03:34.81]Seen anybody do it like I do it any better
[03:38.04]Been going over you I'm overdue for new endeavors
[03:41.31]Nobody lonely like I'm lonely and I don't know whether
[03:44.44]You'd really like it in the limelight
[03:47.66]You'd sympathize with all the bad guys
[03:50.88]I'm still a victim in my own right
[03:54.06]But I'm the villain in my own eyes
[04:01.50]When I was older
[04:07.77]I was a sailor
[04:13.78]On an open sea
