21 Ballad

[Intro]
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm

[Verse 1]
I turned twenty-one last week
And the Monday felt like Sunday
And the sunlight seemed to speak
"Are you happy now?"
Your friends are stacking up
You hide them in your hand
Don't you know you're getting stuck
When you pretend they won't grow up too?

[Chorus]
Fall in love too, fall apart too
Break your heart and break their own too
And they'll love you, but won't need you
And the weaker part of you is gonna keep you in rewind
'Cause maybe you'll be left behind

[Post-Chorus]
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm

[Verse 2]
I turned twenty-one last week
And my baby smiled and said
"You are the reason I can breathe"
Are you happy now?
You fill my heart with fear
Each time you slowly disappear
Into your eyes, I try to keep you near

[Chorus]
But I feel your feelings flying
Through a voice that's only lying
'Cause I love you and I need you
But a part of you is trying to keep me in the dark
Can't you see you've left a mark?

[Post-Chorus]
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm

[Verse 3]
I've been waking up to noise from an upstairs neighbor
Crying through the hole in my frontdoor
Saying, "There's so much more, Noor
I hear the things you think each night
I know you're growing blind to your own light
You should be grateful for"

[Bridge]
Weaker and your stronger part
Suppressing them will do you harm
They love you and they need you
And every single part of you can fly away
Before you wake
Let your body [?]

[Post-Chorus]
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm

[Outro]
Don't you fly away
There's more at stake
And there's beautiful ways to break
