21 Lyrics by girlfriends

(e)motion sickness (Deluxe)

2022

[Intro]
21 was overrated
I never thought I'd make it this far
Dying must be easy
'Cause life is so hard

[Verse 1]
I only hit you up when I'm feeling down
I only want you there when you're not around
I always say the right thing after the wrong one
I can't fix my long list of problems
It's never a good time to point out the bad things
Been walking a straight line to dodge all the mood swings
I've heard that the truth hurts, but I don't know what's worse
Living a lie or knowing that I give up first

[Chorus]
21 was overrated
I never thought I'd make it this far
Dying must be easy
'Cause life is so hard
I don't want to grow up, I don't want to give up
I don't want to grow up, I don't want to givе up
21 was overrated
I nevеr thought I'd make it

[Verse 2]
If I was in the wrong, would I even know? (Even know)
If I tried to run away, where would I even go? (Even go)
When I used to smile, it felt like I was lying
But could breakdown without even trying
Things were always better off in the morning
Nothing changes, it's the same old story
I had faith in myself, but now I think I lost it
It's hard to stop hurting when you're the one that caused it

[Chorus]
21 was overrated
I never thought I'd make it this far
Dying must be easy
'Cause life is so hard
I don't want to grow up, I don't want to give up
I don't want to grow up, I don't want to give up
21 was overrated
I never thought I'd make it

[Outro]
21 was overrated
I never thought I'd make it this far
Dying must be easy
'Cause life is so hard
I don't want to grow up, I don't want to give up
I don't want to grow up, I don't want to give up
21 was overrated
I never thought I'd make it
