Twenty

We were fifteen on the west coast

So far from the top

Plotting on the dream that we want most

How we'd take it from the world to the block

Well, playing The Roxy at eighteen

That was the last of you and me

Well jealousy's a bitch, and I know that

Won't let me focus on my own path

I shouldn't see your wins as a set back

I didn't know it'd be so hard to get a text back

I should be stoked on twenty-one

Not hung up on things I haven't done, no

I'd love to say congratulations, but the truth is that it hurts

'Cause I just keep choking on eight letters I can never put in words

I couldn't tell you how it feels to be a shadow on your road

But I thought we'd both would say we made it when we're twenty years old

Now I'm twenty, and I'm feeling left behind

Now I'm twenty, I thought I would be signed

Now I'm twenty, and all that's on my mind

Eighteen, nineteen, what I'd give to stop the clock at twenty

I'm writing songs from my bed now

And you're lost in Japan

You're in the studio with Ed now

I'm making covers for the gram

Now I say I'm fine but that's a lie

Really I wish I had your life

Now you pull up in a slide-out

And it's just another night out

After party with the light out

In the morning catch a flight out

Well, maybe that's you up in the sky

Headed to Paris or Dubai, whoah

I'd love to say congratulations, but the truth is that it hurts

'Cause I just keep choking on eight letters I can never put in words

And I couldn't tell you how it feels to be a shadow on your road

But I thought we'd both would say we made it when we're twenty years old

Now I'm twenty, and I'm feeling left behind

Now I'm twenty, I thought I would be signed

Now I'm twenty, and all that's on my mind

Eighteen, nineteen, what I'd give to stop the clock at twenty
