"20 Nothing" lyrics

"20 Nothing"

Melancholia won't last forever, kid
Or maybe it will, you'll just kinda learn to live with it
When you're younger, it's just sugar-coated everything
Stop flippin' pennies, slippin' other curse under your breath
There's no Jesus, there's no monster underneath your bed
They just turn to voices in your head

Oh, it's just one foot in front of the other every day
It's just one mess until I recover, but then again

It's like two point-o
When you feel so many things, you almost feel nothin'
Still it hurts so bad and you get so mad 'cause you wanna feel somethin'
But you don't
So you cry to your mom for like seventeen hours 'til you're blue in the face
Make up jokes just to make it make sense but it doesn't
Oh, this twenty somethin' feels a lot like twenty nothin'
(Mm, twenty nothin')

Euphoria won't last forever, kid
Now, the serotonin that you get is through your medicine
Takin' shots will hurt but not like that one breakup did (That one breakup)
The hardest pain will be the people that you love and lose
Be kind to your older man, you know he only wants the best for you
You know he's only gettin' older too

It's just one fuckin' foot in front of the other every day
It's just one mess until I recover, but then again

It's like two point-o
When you feel so many things, you almost feel nothin'
Still it hurts so bad and you get so mad 'cause you wanna feel somethin'
But you don't
So you cry to your mom for like seventeen hours 'til you're blue in the face
Make up jokes just to make it make sense but it doesn't
Oh, this twenty somethin' feels a lot like twenty nothin'
(Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm)

It's like two point-o
When you feel so many things, you almost feel nothin'
Still it hurts so bad and you get so mad 'cause you wanna feel somethin'
But you don't
So you cry to your mom for like twenty five years of your life
Hopin' pieces will fall into place and feel right
Still it doesn't
Oh, this twenty somethin' feels a lot like twenty nothin'
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
