X-Girlfriend - 21 Lyrics

No one is enlightened at the age of 21
You spin around in circles until it stops being fun
I'll say to myself that all is well
Wrapped in a detonated shell
Cause when I was 21
I thought I saw the sun
I wished for cars and porcelain dreams
But I was just a scream machine
Cause when I was 21
I thought you were the (one)
You must have gone and heard me wrong
Cause you broke me like a porcelain doll
And now I'm 28
With pieces broken, fractured, frayed
Sunbeams were my best friend
Blinded me from what I don't intend
Blinded me from what I wasn't ready to see
A self-fulfilling prophecy
No one is decided at the age of 21
I know you feel your heart beat tells
To love, it weighs a ton
But I saw sadness in simple things
And swan songs filled the boy who sings
And when I was 21
I was stunned by sun
Sunbeams were my best friend
Blinded me from what I don't intend
Blinded me from what I wasn't ready to see
A self-fulfilling prophecy
I command the future to be bright
Without your shit, I realize
The only light I need that guides
Is the one that's flashing in my eyes
Sunbeams were my best friend
Blinded me from what I don't intend
Blinded me from what I wasn't ready to see
A self-fulfilling prophecy
