isabel pless - twenty-two lyrics

[verse 1]
never had a birthday or a first date i didn’t cry on
well there’s only been one date
but last may i turned 21
really takes the cake
there’s salt on my face
on the nights i’m supposed to celebrate
but you know that i’m a stickler for tradition

[chorus]
i wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t true
but i’m a m+s+ch+st who can’t read the room
what a joy to be alone
and always ageing
blow the candles out as the lights go down
he said “i want you in the worst way now”
and i’m terrified that my life is alway changing
[verse 2]
never had a blank page or a clean slate i didn’t write on
i ovеrfill my cup and my luck
and i drink ’til it’s all gone
if this is a joke then thе punchline goes “the years fly fast and the days go slow”
and humor is my coping mechanism

[chorus]
i wouldn’t say it if i hadn’t learned
but i’m a pacifist who craves self+burns
what a joy to be alone and always ageing
smile on the count of 3
reach for my hand on a crowded street
i’m terrified that my life is always changing

[verse 3]
i’m one foot out
and one foot in
why does it feel like a race to the life i want
and why am i obsessed with competition?
in 6 months will i know what to do?
will i have my answer at 22?
something tells me that’s an unlikely premonition
my key is turning, turning, turning in my ignition
