existential crisis in c major

Ahem
Ok

It's funny how time got quicker as I got bigger
I can't tell you that it gets better and I'm not bitter, I am
'Cause I thought that I'd be
Seventeen for eternity
Well, that's on me
I'm just a boy tryna play a man
So

Oh, oh, oh
And I've been trying to
Oh, oh, oh
But I can't lie to you
Oh, oh
Because my cracks are shining through
And all my days have slipped away with all my youth

Every memory's one more thing I miss
And I get high 'cause time flies by so quick
But it just compounds the hurt
When I come back down to earth
And I'm so burnt out tryna keep my fire lit
So

Oh, oh, oh
And I've been trying to
Oh, oh, oh
But I can't lie to you
Oh, oh
Because my cracks are shining through
And all my days have slipped away with all my youth

Some days I wonder, when I was younger
Would I be proud of me now?
Or am I a fossil in time?
I wish I could try to be somebody else
And I try, I try, I try
But I'm running out of time
Some days I wonder when I was younger
Would I?
