Nineteen! Lyrics

Uh

What a pipe dream, uh

I don't want to give up my dream, uh

I'm riding, uh

I ain't gonna give up on fighting, uh

It's tiring, uh

But I'm closing to the lightning, uh

And I will make it out

I won't ever give up, I swear it on my nineteen

I just watched an interview

Of an artist I really like

And it's strange because it seems

As if he was dead inside

Not because of drugs

Or because of too many fights

But because it seems the light he had

Just deserted his eyes

Uh

What a pipe dream, uh

I don't want to give up my dream, uh

I'm riding, uh

I ain't gonna give up on fighting, uh

It's tiring, uh

But I'm closing to the lightning, uh

And I will make it out

I won't ever give up, I swear it on my nineteen

And I don't know what to think, to be honest

I though he could never become like that

That's one of the reasons I promised

I would give my all to become a rockstar

Because I didn't think rockstars

Could ever become middle-aged men

Oh I guess the Young and the youth were right

It's better to burn than to fade away

Uh

What a pipe dream, uh

I don't want to give up my dream, uh

I'm riding, uh

I ain't gonna give up on fighting, uh

It's tiring, uh

But I'm closing to the lightning, uh

And I will make it out

I won't ever give up, I swear it on my nineteen

I guess it's better to burn out

Before you live life like a rainy day

I guess it's better to go out as fireworks

If you go out anyway

I promise I won't become like him, yeah

I promise I won't give up on fighting

I promise I'll stay that free

I promise I'll keep being nineteen

Even after I'm nineteen

Even after I'm nineteen

Uh

What a pipe dream, uh

I don't want to give up my dream, uh

I'm riding, uh

I ain't gonna give up on fighting, uh

It's tiring, uh

But I'm closing to the lightning, uh

And I will make it out

I won't ever give up, I swear it on my nineteen
