Lyrics:
kelly
we’re getting older
some people grow colder
but i think i found some joy since last time we spoke

changin
you made a move to berlin
now the leaves are turning
in michigan but we won’t see them this year

if i could just relax
and learn from my past
get back on track
keep to the path
if i could stop smoking
get where i’m going
come on christian

benny
you went off and got married
i had fun at your wedding
i wonder if i will have one of those some day

told me
that you are thankful for me
and we’re part of God’s story
some days i believe in that more than others

if i could just relax
and learn from my past
get back on track
keep to the path
well i would stop smoking
get where i’m going
come on, christian

if i could just rewind
and get there on time
and stick to my lines
and make some things right
i’d shut out the noises
make better choices
come on, christian

I've been chatting with Ohly about his music since 2018, and "Older" feels like a real turning point. It's a song that digs into what it means to grow older, and it does it in a way that really hits home.
The lyrics about wanting to relax and learn from the past are spot-on. They capture that nagging feeling we all get sometimes about whether we're on the right track in life. It's honest without being heavy-handed.

I love how Ohly uses places like Berlin and Michigan to show how life pulls people in different directions. The way he talks about friendships changing and wondering about the future – it's all so relatable. What stands out to me is how the song tackles the ups and downs of trying to improve yourself. It's not preachy; it's just straight on point.

"Older" shows how much Ohly has grown as a songwriter. He's got a knack for putting complicated feelings into words that stick with you. This is the kind of song that'll have you thinking about your own life long after you've finished listening and yet still feel that it's all okay.
