I'm making the most of my life
'Til the day that I hit twenty-five
I know that they'll make an adult of me
I know that I'm not quite ready to be
And I know I've got some growing, I realized the other day
When I said some things that I knew that I shouldn't say
They were due in April but now it's the end of May
It's sad that I
Prepare to be so young 'til the end of time
I realized
When I struggled to get out of my room last night
Got on my phone
And I begged for my brother to take me home
When he asked why
I said I'd rather be here alone
I went to the doctor again
Said I was behind on my rent
He told me it's not a problem for him
I said that you're so good at listening
And I know I've got some growing, I realized the other day
When I said some things that I knew that I shouldn't say
I opened up a letter of bills that I didn't pay
They were due in April but now it's the end of May
It's sad that I
Prepare to be so young 'til the end of time
I realized
When I struggled to get out of my room last night
Got on my phone
And I begged for my brother to take me home
When he asked why
I said I'd rather be here alone
(Hello?)
It's sad that I
Prepare to be so young 'til the end of time
I realized
When I struggled to get out of my room last night
Got on my phone
And I begged for my brother to take me home
When he asked why
I said I'd rather be here alone
