Woke up, I'm twenty-three
And that's so far from nineteen
It's kind of scary when you think about it
Is it better not to think about it?
Four years flicker by and it's
Such a shame to realise
All the energy I wasted on you
Is just a memory that's gonna bleed through

Into every new love as it unfolds

I guess I don't know what I expected
But I keep on dragging my past into my present
And, yeah, it's so damn frustrating
How life gets so complicated
How I wish you were out of the question
And I just wanna know how I'm supposed to feel

When I'm waking up at twenty-three
And still holding on to nineteen
I thought, by now, I'd have it all together
Or be doing just a littlе better
Swear I chasе the bad days and I
Find comfort in heartbreak
Just so I can write a song about it
But, to be honest, I could do without it

'Cause I end up pushing people away and

I guess I don't know what I expected
But I keep on dragging my past into my present
And, yeah, it's so damn frustrating
How life gets so complicated
How I wish you were out of the question
'Cause I'm getting older
But that's alright
'Cause four years ain't really much in a lifetime
And I just wanna know where I'm supposed to be

When I'm waking up at twenty-three
'Cause that's so far from nineteen
It's kinda scary when I think about it

And I guess I don't know what I expected
But I keep on dragging my past into my present (I keep on dragging my past)
And, yeah, it's so damn frustrating (so frustrating)
How life gets so complicated
How I wish you were out of the question
'Cause I'm getting older
But that's alright
'Cause four years ain't really much in a lifetime
But I just wanna know where I'm supposed to be
Yeah, I just wanna know how I'm supposed to feel (how I'm supposed to feel)
I just wanna know where I'm supposed to be

When I'm waking up at twenty-three
'Cause that's so far from nineteen
It's kinda scary when I think about it
