[Verse 1]
I wasn't always so bitter
I wasn't always this jaded and insecure
I used to dream so much bigger
Then woke up in my twenties
Like "oh fuck I'm not really sure"
[Verse 2]
Paying my rent is a bummer
Nobody told me that every day looks the same
I have to work in the summer
Used to daydream in color
Now I stare into empty space
[Pre-Chorus]
I shot for the moon
Ended up in the atmosphere
Does anybody else hate it here?
[Chorus]
'Cause when I wakе up
I'm still thirteen
Staying up drinking soda
But my friends don't sleep over anymore
So I'll ridе on my halfpipe dream
For as long as I'm able
On the edge of unstable
When I grow up I just hope I see
Someone one half as cool as the kid that I used to be
[Verse 3]
Forget to eat until dinner
Stare at my phone 'til it dies and the screen turns off
I only feel like a winner
When I find twenty dollars in the coat that I lost
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
I shot for the moon
Ended up in the atmosphere
Does anybody else hate it here?
[Chorus]
'Cause when I wake up
I'm still thirteen
Staying up drinking soda
But my friends don't sleep over anymore
So I'll ride on my halfpipe dream
For as long as I'm able
On the edge of unstable
When I grow up I just hope I see
Someone one half as cool as the kid that I used to be
'Cause when I wake up
I'm still thirteen
Staying up drinking soda
But my friends don't sleep over anymore
So I'll ride on my halfpipe dream
For as long as I'm able
On the edge of unstable
When I grow up I just hope I see
Someone one half as cool
One half as cool
Someone one half as cool as the kid that I used to be
