This is a song I wrote about the beauty in getting wrinkles
Press show more for lyrics

Wrinkles
tributaries like the Nile
Picture frames around your smile
Reminds me that it's been a while
And your wrinkles
A demonstration of the weather
An indication of the pressure
I see you tried to make them better

Reminds me that it's been forever
Forever, forever, forever

Wrinkles
Forming like the Grand Canyon
the best wrinkle on our planet
and we didin't even plan it

These lines reach into the future
New skin soon will turn into ya
Im a son that will become my father
Hoping to grandfather
Wearing wrinkles

Get out
You know I thought I could escape it
So I moved into the city
Where I thought it couldn't find me
Then I came back
To see the difference in our faces
Find I couldn't hide from changes
Now I know I can't erase this
So we'll be like this forever
Forever, forever, forever

These lines reach into the future
New skin soon will turn into ya
Im a son that will become my father
Hoping to grandfather
Wearing wrinkles (x2)

I love how you took something that some people think is scary, or undesirable, like getting old, and turned it into a beautiful thing. Your music is really something special, Alec.

' Pictures the frames around your smile '

Best line ever made.

[vanessaalag]

So rare to find male artists writing songs about things that are not beautiful by society's standard. Nice one! :)

[zoecox]

Wrinkles and grey hair are some of the most beautiful things ever. They tell about experiences, good or bad, interesting or not, and also about wisdom, but most importantly they tell the story of life! There is so much depth and beauty in what you write. Absolutely beautiful!

THE WAY HE SAYS WRINKLES- IT MELTS MY HEART

[SocietyPandaBro]

I'm running on 3% battery rn but I don't even care I wanna hear this song

[SeleneRoseRM]

Why are all of his best songs so under rated?

[kiannatrujillo]

I love how you always put songs out while I'm at church 😂 it puts me in a good mood😂

[alliahpatricio]

I've been so busy I've had to push aside listening to this song and I'm so upset I didn't listen to this earlier. There's such wonder and innocence in your vocals and lyrics that makes the listener feel so pure...and the perfectly timed pause at the end of the second verse and the stripped down portion where the bridge would've been just left me in this sort of childish suspense...I'm in tears. ❤️
