21 Undone Lyrics

Starin' at the cracks in my ceiling

Like there's something I'm meant to decode

I've been thinking about it lately

Is this really the life I composed?

Another orbit around the sun

Trying to hold on to who I was

Never been farther from what I want, yeah

Or where I want to be

I guess that's why I always cry on my birthday

There's nothing special about being 21

Don't wanna celebrate, it's so cliche

Here's to 21 coming undone

Staring at myself in the mirror

But the reflection's not the same as before

I thought I knew her but she's just a stranger

That I don't recognize anymore

Feels like I'm screaming into a void

I take up space and make too much noise

Might be nostalgic but not by choice, hm

I just miss seventeen

I guess that's why I always cry on my birthday

There's nothing special about being 21

Don't wanna celebrate, it's so cliche

Nothing's sadder than being so numb

Wish I could say goodbye to this reminder that

I'm wasting time and I can't get it back

I guess that's why I cry on my birthday

Here's to 21 coming undone

Seems the older I get, I get more messed up

I've tried to figure it out but I just got stuck

And there's a voice in my head asking why I try

Cuz I'm too old to start over, too young to die

And I keep losing control but it's not my fault

So sick of being told "cheer the fuck up''

And I'm so overwhelmed, think I might throw up

So tell me it's just a dream and I'll keep my eyes shut

I guess that's why I always cry on my birthday

There's nothing special about being 21

Don't wanna celebrate, it's so cliche

Nothing's sadder than being so numb

Wish I could say goodbye to this reminder

That I'm wasting time and I can't get it back

I guess that's why I cry on my birthday

Here's to 21 coming undone
