21 by Themme Fatale Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why do I miss home
Why do I never call
Why do I put pen to paper
Just to do the same things and pretend I've grown

Why do I jump
Through every hoop I can
Just to push away everyone
Who tells me that I’ll be okay

[Chorus]
I'm just twenty-one with nothing to call my own
And I still feel all alone
In a room full of people
A room full of empty faces

I'm just twenty-one, an open casket narcissist
Shot for the clouds but I still miss
I wish that I could say that I’ve changed
Or at least I've tried it
Twenty-one
[Verse 2]
Why don't I miss you
The person that I was
Or the person that I am
I guess I don't see them much anymore

The shitty songs you like to play
The dumb facts you like to learn
Now all that you know is the past and future you're in
And that's not worth no return

[Chorus]
I'm just twenty-one with nothing to call my own
And I still feel all alone
In a room full of people
A room full of empty faces

I'm just twenty-one, an open casket narcissist
Shot for the clouds but I still miss
I wish that I could say that I’ve changed
Or at least I’ve tried it
Twenty-one

[Bridge]
If I die before I wake
At least I'll finally get a break
From my mind
From the life I’m not even living
Why am I living?
[Chorus]
Twenty-one with nothing to call my own
And I still feel all alone
In a room full of people
A room full of empty faces

I'm just twenty-one, an open casket narcissist
Shot for the clouds but I still miss
I wish that I could say that I've changed
Or at least I've tried
I wish I tried
At twenty-one
