Count Past 23
2007 seems a lot more far away
Whatever happened to the songs we used to play?
I used to listen to the same ones every day
And now my iPod is dead
I work so much I'm gonna fall out, boy, it's rough
I always wonder if my good is good enough
I try my hardest to be disciplined and tough
Can I just lie in my bed?
Everything's faster now
Please help, I don't know how
To keep up with the race I should be running
I'd laugh, but it's not funny
I'm not teenaged anymore
But I still mess up, and I'm insecure
I thought I would have grown by now
But I still sleep in and play music loud
I'm not ready for responsibility
I never learned to count past 23
Someone from school just won a Grammy, hip hooray
I know another who's a doctor in LA
One has a baby with another on the way
Should I be seeing a shrink?
The prim and proper song and dance just isn't me
'Cause all this business has me steeped in misery
I'm still the kid who bought an All Time Low CD
But I can legally drink
Everything's faster now
Please help, I don't know how
To keep up with the race I should be running
I need to make more money
I'm not teenaged anymore
But I still mess up, and I'm insecure
I thought I would have grown by now
But I still sleep in and play music loud
I'm not ready
Man, I don't know anything
I never learned to count past 23
24 is only one away from 25
25 is close to 30 if I'm still alive
30's ten away from 40, where'd the decade go?
Ten more years and I'll be 50, time is running low
Add 14, will you still need me when I'm 64?
It's all too much, and I don't wanna do this anymore
I'm not teenaged anymore
But I still mess up, and I'm insecure
I thought I would have grown by now
But I still sleep in and play music loud
I'm not ready, I don't think I'll ever be
I never learned to count past 23
This could be the death of me
I never learned to count past 23
