​youth Lyrics by ​anne october

​laments of a wandering woman

2022

[Verse 1]
I can feel my body changing
All my cells are rearranging
I'm filled with such raw emotion
Sometimes it gets hard to cope with
I can feel my limbs get longer
I can feel my bones get stronger
26 and then the decline
There's no way that I can rewind
All my friends that I have now
They'll all go seek themselves out
Can I keep up with the rat race?
Heading to my twenty somethings
[Chorus]
Oh no, I don't wanna grow up yet
I don't wanna put my youth to bed
I can't help but feel connected
To these memories I collectеd
I don't wanna lose my angst
I'm still 16 in my brain
I can feel it in the summer
Sidеwalk chalk and teenage lovers
[Verse 2]
I'll glue my skin to my skull
'Cause I'm afraid of growing old
I think that I'm scared of death
'Cause I have no clue what comes next
Time keeps on going faster
Skin chips off like growing plaster
I don't want to be immortal
I just wish God drew a bigger circle
[Chorus]
Oh no, I don't wanna grow up yet
I don't wanna put my youth to bed
I can't help but feel connected
To these memories I collected
I don't wanna lose my angst
I'm still 16 in my brain
I can feel it in the summer
Sidewalk chalk and teenage lovers
[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sidewalk chalk, oh, teenage lovers
All my friends that I have now
They'll all go seek themselves out
Can I keep up with the rat race?
Heading to my twenty somethings
[Chorus]
Oh no, I don't wanna grow up yet
I don't wanna put my youth to bed
I can't help but feel connected
To these memories I collected
I don't wanna lose my angst
I'm still 16 in my brain
I can feel it in the summer
Sidewalk chalk and teenage lovers
[Outro]
Mm, I can feel it in the summer
