27 Club

1, 2, 3!

Happy birthday to you

They said welcome to the 27 club

It's hard for us to do what we love

It's easier just to pretend

It's a race just to get to the end

Then I don't really know where to start

But I felt it that like a shock to my heart

Sense of threat for what's to come

But Someone told me this when I was Twenty-one

Now I'm almost thirty

Where the past two years go

My mind is stuck at twenty-five

Before the world went cold

And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date

Cause no one wants to grow

Cause I'm almost twenty eight

Men and I'll show you all around

There's an ex-essential crisis on your left

And you're new best friend is your therapist

So too young to truly understand

But to old to be considered into mend

It's all getting a little mad

Where's the wisdom Where's the peace

I was promised to succeed

Now I'm almost thirty

Where the past two years go

My mind is stuck at twenty-five

Before the world went cold

And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date

Cause no one wants to grow

And I wonder if the pressure ever stops

To be effortless and everything

And if the sense of self is worth the pain

When you're yesterday's news

Now I'm almost thirty

Where the past two years go

My mind is stuck at twenty-five

Before the world went cold

And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date

Cause no one wants to know and want to grow

Cause I'm almost twenty eight
