[00:07.60]I Taught Myself How To Grow Old[00:30.49]Poor little rose, beaten by the rain

[00:07.60]I Taught Myself How To Grow Old[00:30.49]Poor little rose, beaten by the rain

In the wind in the gale, thunder and the hail

Sometimes I feel like I’m going insane

Without the numbness or the pain so intense to feel

Especially now it added up through the years

And I, I taught myself how to grow

Without any love and there was poison in the rain

I taught myself how to grow

[01:08.79]Now I’m crooked on the outside, and the inside’s broke[01:31.44]Most of the time I got nothing to say

[01:08.79]Now I’m crooked on the outside, and the inside’s broke[01:31.44]Most of the time I got nothing to say

When I do it’s nothing and nobody’s there to listen anyway

I know I’m probably better off this way

I just listen to the voices on the TV ’til I’m tired

[01:55.54]My eyes grow heavy and I fade away[01:58.96]’Cause I, I taught myself how to grow

[01:55.54]My eyes grow heavy and I fade away[01:58.96]’Cause I, I taught myself how to grow

Without any love and there was poison in the rain

I taught myself how to grow

’Til I was crooked on the outside

I taught myself how to grow

Without any love and there was poison in the rain

I taught myself how to grow

’Til I was crooked on the outside, inside’s caved

Crooked on the outside, inside’s caved

Crooked on the outside, inside’s caved

I taught myself how to grow old
