Another morning, but the same old day
It's always the same
All work and no play
It's summer time, but it's cold inside
Getting worn away by the daily grind
I wish I knew what to do with myself
Since reality put my dreams on the shelf
They say I'll miss this time in my life
I can only hope that they are right
They call them golden years
The glory days
But I just can't seem to find my way
My 20's suck
My 20's suck
They say these years are my prime
That they're one hell of a time
But I'm just barely getting by
Thought it'd be real cool
Instead I'm paying for school
At a useless job
Living life by the rules
And don't I ever feel a fool?
My 20's suck
They say it's all downhill from here
That these will be my last good years
They say that soon my body will break
And the ones that I love, they will fade away
It seems just yesterday we were kids
Making memories that we'd never forget
Run around in the woods, and we'd stay out late
Now it's 5am traffic, for a job that we hate
They say I'm 23
I'm just a baby
So why do I feel so old?
My 20's suck
My 20's suck
I ain't got a dime
Going nowhere in life
Did I peak in my teens? Am I past my prime?
And I miss my friends
They're all you need in the end
And your family too
All the ones who love you
It seems no matter what I do
My 20s suck
So I'll slave away
Just to get a break
From the wear and tear
Of the day to day
Feels like I should have it all figured out
Have a six-figure job, and make society proud
I'd trade the house, the car
The job, and the degree
To be with my friends
And my family
Cause what's the point of having everything?
If at the end of it all, you've got nothing?
My 20's Suck
