18 years Lyrics by Jay Kim

2024

[Chorus]
The mom and pop shop where I got my first guitar is shutting down
You were the only good thing in this fuckin' town
The building owner keeps on jackin' rent up, tryna drive 'em out
Well, you drove 'em out
Hate to see it happen, it happens
'Cause life is fuckin' tragic and sad as shit
Don't mean to be manic or have a fit
But things are only crashin' and collapsing
Wish I could say last year was good for me
Depression is a battle that lasts for weeks
And months, and days, and years, and a lifetime
I don't know how much I got left anymore
Anymore

[Verse]
And wintertime in Carolina's way too harsh this time around
Without you around
And Christmas passed us without giving us the gift of playin' house
Settle down, oh
And I'm not on thе radio
So you probably won't hear this
But we werе not the way it goes
'Cause we called it all quits when
We lost the feeling in our mouths
Wish it happened more quickly
We took our sweet time tumblin' down
We just cut it off this week

[Chorus]
The mom and pop shop where I got my first guitar is shutting down
You were the only good thing in this fuckin' town
The building owner keeps on jackin' rent up, tryna drive 'em out
Well, you drove 'em out, oh
Hate to see it happen, it happens
'Cause life is fuckin' tragic and sad as shit
Don't mean to be manic or have a fit
But things are only crashin' and collapsing
Wish I could say last year was good for me
Depression is a battle that lasts for weeks
And months, and days, and years, and a lifetime
I don't know how much I got left anymore
