I Fight Dragons - Eighteen Lyrics
[Verse:]Eighteen at a traffic light, I got nowhere to be on a Friday nightI got it all, got nothingThe summer's here and I'm finally freeI got no-one to do and no-one to seeI got it all, I got nothingEighteen is a funny age, you got so many dreams and an empty pageI got it all because I got nothing[Chorus:]Everybody knows what I should doEverybody works so I should tooHow do I explains what feels so wrong?Dealing with the shame of knowing you don't belongSo you try to swallow and hopeThat you won't always be alone with the dreamsThat came in between eighteen[Verse 2:]Eighteen but I feel so oldLike a bright screen with a paper soldI've seen it all, I've seen anythingEighteen with a heart that drivesAnd a strange need just to feel aliveI've seen it all, I've seen the fadeHave you heard, it's a golden ageGirl, get your golden youth from your golden cageI've seen it all, because I've seen nothing[Chorus:]Everybody knows what I should doEverybody works so I should tooHow do I explains what feels so wrong?Dealing with the shame of knowing you don't belongSo you try to swallow and hopeThat you won't always be alone with the dreamsThat came in between eighteenEverybody does just what they're toldEverybody buys just what they're soldHow do I escape what I can't see?How do I replace the broken parts of me?I know you try to swallow and hopeThat you won't always be alone with the dreamsThat came in between eighteen
