"27" lyrics

So this is twenty-seven, it doesn't matter
What I've been through, I should go out too
But I still act like I'm eleven
I'm not emotionally sound since I left you

And no, I don't like to be the bad guy
I won't be surprised if I'm the last one out

But I had you where I wanted you, never had to ask
I'd set the world on fire just to get it back
Don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down, down, down, yeah
I had you where I wanted you, never had to ask
I'd set the world on fire just to get it back
Don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down

I let it slip somehow
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I let it slip somehow
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

So this is twenty-seven, start the music
Kill the silence, let my mind rest
Pour a drink 'cause it's effective
Can't seem to get my head around why I left you

And no, I don't like to be the bad guy
You know I don't lie, I really miss you now

But I had you where I wanted you, never had to ask
I'd set the world on fire just to get it back
I don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down, down, down, yeah
I had you where I wanted you, never had to ask
I'd set the world on fire just to get it back
I don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down

I let it slip somehow
Ooh, I let it slip somehow

So start the music, kill the silence
Pour a drink and let my mind rest

'Cause I had you where I wanted you, never had to ask
I'd set the world on fire just to get it back
Don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down, down, down, yeah

I had you where I wanted you, never had to ask
I'd set the world on fire just to get it back
I don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down
Yeah, I had you where I wanted you, had you by my side
It was all I ever needed but couldn't realize
I don't know how it feels to be someone you love
And it gets me down

I let it slip somehow
