23

All my friends are 26
They've all figured out ways to cleverly fix
All the problems that arise when you're 26

Poor old me, I'm just 23
They all say, "hey, isn't that just lovely"
But I'm not so sure I can solve all the problems I see

I know I'll keep making mistakes
But I'm trying to be more present
Feel like my head's about to pop
Hearing the ticking of the clock

I have been I told I can't rush time
And that the gods have got me covered
But I'm impatient to a fault
So I'll leave myself to pick the locks

Before I turn
24
With so many open doors
Being young is such a bore
How I'd love to be mature

I'm supposed to have it all figured out
I don't
I'm heading into tunnels hoping I am upward bound
Hearing all my failures echoing round
Hold my breath till I see the next town ahead
Up ahead
Way up ahead

I will soon be 26
Better have figured out ways to cleverly fix
All the problems that arise when I'm 26
