Wilfred - 23

Lyrics

Dear, Sid

You think you made it in the world
Now you’re 18 years
Adults aren’t superheroes they’re just kids growing old
Maturity is a choice that not everybody chooses
Dropping out of college doesn’t mean that you’re a loser

You think you’ll figure out the world by the time you’re 23
Now you’re a certified adult that’s woking 40 hour weeks
So many bills why does it cost so much to breathe
You thought it would be easier deciding what to eat

You’ll still fall out of love and someones always mean
I promise you don’t wanna be like the people on TV
And everything is meant to be
Can’t change what people think
Every year goes by a little faster
One day you’re 23

You think that turning 25 is the year you make it out
But you’re still fighting wars you know nothing about
Where is the truth are we ever gonna find it
Is this a game why does it have to feel so crowded

You think you’ll figure out the world by the time you’re 23
Now you’re a certified adult that’s woking 40 hour weeks
So many bills why does it cost so much to breathe
You thought it would be easier deciding what to eat

You’ll still fall out of love and someones always mean
I promise you don’t wanna be like the models in magazines
And everything is meant to be
Can’t change what people think
Every year goes by a little faster

Don’t ever lay your head down angry
Never slam doors closed
If someone breaks your heart there’s someone better down the road
We’re living for the first time and this is all we know
We’re living for the first time its okay to take it slow

Cause
You’ll still fall out of love and someones always mean
I promise you don’t wanna be like the people on TV
And everything is meant to be
Can’t change what people think
Every year goes by a little faster
One day you’re 23

You’ll still fall out of love and someones always mean
I promise you don’t wanna be like the models in magazines
And everything is meant to be
Can’t change what people think
Every year goes by a little faster

Till you wish you were 23
I still don’t know where I’m heading should I?
I’m still getting older as the days go by
I stay in my head on most days
And I’m trying to forget my own age

Wish I was 23

Sincerely,
Wilfred
