[Verse] Grey's creeping in like a thief at night Stealing the black from the edges of light Wrinkles carve maps on a face once smooth Every laugh line whispers of youth [Prechorus] Hair’s sprouting where it don’t belong Nose and ears sing their own hairy song [Chorus] Grey creeping in Yeah it never plays fair Lines on my face Too tired to care Metabolism’s gone Fat’s taking its throne Grey creeping in Pain making me moan [Verse 2] The mirror don’t lie Though I wish it would Once a temple of strength now a rotting wood Every ache Every pain Every morning groan Feels like a debt my younger self had loaned [Prechorus] Time don’t fight It just pulls you along And you wake up wondering where you went wrong [Chorus] Grey creeping in Yeah it never plays fair Lines on my face Too tired to care Metabolism’s gone Fat’s taking its throne Grey creeping in Pain of a life well sown [Bridge] Tried to run but my knees just laughed Chased my youth but it ran too fast I see the clock It’s got a wicked grin Grey creeping in Grey creeping in
