Lyrics:
Verse
They said welcome to the 27 club
It’s hard for us to do what we love
It’s easier just to pretend
It’s a race just to get to the end
I don’t really know where to start
But I felt it like a shock to my heart
A sense of dread for what’s to come
Wish someone told me this when I was 21
Chorus
Now I’m almost 30
Where’d the past 2 years go
My minds stuck at 25
Before the world went cold
And they tell me to hurry up
Like I’m going out of date
Cause no one wants a girl
Who’s almost 28
Verse
Please come in and I’ll show you all around
Here’s an existential crisis on your left
And your new best friend your therapist
You’re still too young to truly understand
But too old to be considered “in demand”
It’s all getting a-little mad
Where’s the wisdom where’s the peace
I was promised at 16
Chorus
Now I’m almost 30
Where’d the past 2 years go
My minds stuck at 25
Before the world went cold
And they tell me to hurry up
Like I’m going out of date
Cause no one wants a girl
Bridge
And I wonder if the pressure ever stops
To be effortless at everything
If a sense of self is worth the pain
When you’re yesterdays news
Yesterdays news
Chorus
Now I’m almost 30
Where’d the past 2 years go
My minds stuck at 25
Before the world went cold
And they tell me to hurry up
Like I’m going out of date
Cause no one wants a girl
Who’s almost 28
