Lyrics:
The taste of a cigarette in Paris in Spring,
Conversation with elders and the wisdom they bring,
Sunrise in Georgia as holy choirs sing,
The view from an aeroplane at twelve thousand feet
Meet God on a mountain top alone with the stars,
Find love somewhere, anywhere, fall deep from the start.
Misplace my mind and follow my heart,
See the cosmos unfolding and know I’m a part.
I’ll sleep when I’m older
When the world’s got me weathered I’ll finally find my way home.
I’ll sleep when I’m older,
Sleep when I’m older.
I’ll be a firework, not a flickering flame,
Treat life all around me like a one player game,
I’ll go to the party and forget all their names,
Should it come back to haunt me, it ends all the same.
I’ll sleep when I’m older,
When the world’s got me weathered I’ll finally find my way home,
I’ll sleep when I’m older,
Sleep when I’m older.
#BrunoMajor

ACTUALLY I'M IN A GROUP CHAT THAT LOVES CONAN GRAY AND ALL

[@junosan8847]

I interpreted this song as someone who'd want to go out and discover the world, talk to wise elders, see the cosmos unfold, and find their place in the universe, before they "fall asleep"; it's like saying "I want to live my life before i get old." What hit me the most was the line "When the world's got me weathered, i'll finally find my way home." I think what they meant by that was: *we'll eventually find a place to "settle" (a place where we can feel at home) once we've gone through different types of people, places, experiences, etc. because by then would we have a sense of contentment*--A feeling of satisfaction after all these adventures we've gone through. This is just my interpretation though. Such a lovely song kudos to Bruno and the production team. Edit: wow didnt know this got a lot of likes!! glad everyone shares the same sentiments

riding around on my skateboard while listening to bruno is one of the best feelings ill never be able to explain

[@loksanwong8763]

Today's is my 20th birthday and I am listening to the song alone in my room in London, away from my family and home. I don't know what I will do or will become in the future. I feel lost. At least this song is with me, and it gives me the warmth I needed, like a hug, telling me what wanted and why I went here. And I will only sleep when I am older.

[@pinkablues]

I bet when I turn 90 someday, I'll still love this song and keep in mind that bruno is one of the greatest songsmith that God ever created

[@epoint605]

It was 2017 during my thesis when I stumbled upon Bruno Major and I was hooked. Now, 3 years later, I am again writing my thesis and enjoying this beautiful music! It's rare to find artists of whom you like all songs.

[@ivoflo]

I know he doesn't dress up edgy. I know some people may not like slow calming songs. But I need people to know that this guy needs more recognition. His songs and his voice is such a damn mood. How could you people out there don't know him and don't like his works?

[@priciliar.s.simarmata2373]

Now he is well-known, from TikTok and Instagram Reels trend by his song Nothing. Kinda surprised he blew up, felt like his music is my small secret sanctuary, but felt happy too that people recognize his music, and the trend is very heartwarming too.

[@ivoflo]

@@priciliar.s.simarmata2373 I commented that a year ago. Nothing was a popular song but not as popular until TikTok.

[@priciliar.s.simarmata2373]

@@ivoflo Yes yes, I saw it was a year ago so I thought I'd like to share that this song has blown up today. Anyway you said the song was popular back then? I've never met anyone else who listens to Bruno Major where I live. 😥 I'm happy to know he is well loved then!

[@ivoflo]

@@priciliar.s.simarmata2373 he was popular for certain genre. I always love slow chilling song, then I discovered him, turned out my friends also listen to him too on Spotify, so it feels great having someone whose music preference is similar

[@drao3837]

Its like a glass of warmth, just a smooth tune that trickles down inside, then it swoops in with flavor and meaning, only to slowly fade but your okay with it cause you know there's a repeat button, I myself am having a tough time but for those who listen to this or read my comment, have a wonderful time.

This is my favorite Bruno Major song right now and it’s all because of the violin part at the chorus. ❤️

Why i just have the feeling of don't having real person who understands me, and everyone in this comment section could be better friends than my currents ones Take care !♡

[@Audioclass5]

as I see the sun seep into my bedroom, I silence my alarm just as it dares to sing clothes, face, teeth, cheerios, and I'm out the door. and onto my bike it's chilly, even with my jacket, but that's never bothered us. headphones on. As I pass through the paved pathways previously passed I play this song it's as if my life has a soundtrack.
