"twenty something" lyrics

"twenty something"

Moved to LA with a dream in my head
Paving a trail, but is it a dead end?
Nothing feels scarier than a safe bet
But here I still don't even have my own apartment

Last night I talked to some old friends from high school
They're out having babies, doing shit I don't do
Loving glances, picket fence, their life is starting
While I'm still searching

I didn't want to be twenty something till I was something
Thought it would feel like it was more than nothing
Maybe thirty's got the answers to everything
But I'm still lost in twenty something

Lying awake, but all buzzed in my head
Thinking 'bout time, and how much I wasted
Wish I had spent it more on learning shit, and politics
So I could keep up in a conversation

'Cause I'm too young for the world to be ending
But I'm too old to understand these new trends
Sometimes it's hard to know where I even fit
And I'll admit

I didn't want to be twenty something till I was something
Thought it would feel like it was more than nothing
Maybe thirty's got the answers to everything
But I'm still lost in, ooh

Am I ever gonna know?
Am I ever gonna grow up
Or are my stories getting old?
Am I ever gonna prove something?
Am I ever gonna know?
Am I ever gonna grow up?
Grow up?

I didn't want to be twenty something till I was something
Thought it would feel like it was more than nothing
Maybe thirty's got the answers to everything
But I'm still lost in twenty something
