Backwards With Time Lyrics - The Gleam - Avett Brothers

Folk always told me that my heart would grow 

The older the man, yeah, the stronger the stone 

Am I losing my mind? 

Am I growing backwards with time? 

Some say with age that a purpose comes clear 

I see the opposite happening here 

Are we losing the fight? 

Are we growing backwards with time? 

I was young and love was fun 

Now it's so serious 

Now all the fun has equal pain 

There's something wrong with this 

For all I know there's more I don't 

Oh the little I have learned 

For every year of knowledge gained 

Is a negative year I've earned
