Lyrics

18

[Verse 1]

I'm scared to find out

What eighteen's about

I'm about to jump now

I spend my money

And now I'm lonely again

But I can't slow down

[Pre-Chorus]

Take me on a ride

So I don't, I don't feel invisible

Anywhere tonight

So I don't, I don't fade away

Need to feel alive

'Cause I'm lost and I wanna be invincible

Take me on a ride, ride, ride

[Chorus]

It hurts to be eighteen

We're stuck in the in between

Restless and in the streets

Yeah, it hurts to be eighteen

[Verse 2]

I'm undiscovered

Heart's uncovered, scared

Of being let down

I know my mother

Taught me better

No calling back now

[Pre-Chorus]

Take me on a ride

So I don't, I don't feel invisible

Anywhere tonight

So I don't, I don't fade away

Need to feel alive

'Cause I'm lost and I wanna be invincible

Take me on a ride, ride, ride

[Chorus]

It hurts to be eighteen

We're stuck in the in between

Restless and in the streets

Yeah, it hurts to be eighteen

[Bridge]

Who am I to decide who I'm supposed to be?

I need time, I need time to be young and free

Who am I to decide who I'm supposed to be?

I need time, I need time

[Chorus]

It hurts to be eighteen

We're stuck in the in between

Restless and in the streets

Yeah, it hurts to be eighteen

[Outro]

It hurts

It hurts

We're stuck in the in between

It hurts to be eighteen
