Lyrics
Sixteen
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Just when I think I need someone
They wrap their arms around my old bones
And I start breaking apart
I walk away from anyone that cares about me
But I swear my skin's not as rough as I make it out to be
The saddest part is I've been distant since I was sixteen
It keeps me up in bed
I'm stuck here with all the choices I've made
And the chances I was too afraid to take
I've called myself young and stupid
But lately I feel old and desperate
I find it kind of weird how you find yourself when you have no one
I look for the right things in all the wrong places
The saddest part is I've been distant since I was sixteen
It keeps me up in bed
I'm stuck here with all the choices I've made
And the chances I was too afraid to take
