27teen Lyrics

I can still feel my hand tucked in my North Face fleece

Wrapped 'round 100 gigs of belonging and belief

I guess a part of us stays in those first defeats

When bitter tasted sweet

Now I still listen to that Death Cab record every day

"Hey Siri, turn on Plans"

"Ha! What a throwback," you say

I guess nostalgia's all the feels without the present strain

We love familiar pain

It doesn't feel like I'm ten years away from 17

Wasn't it just yesterday you said to me

That the life I'm living now is right in front of me?

But here I am feeling 27teen

I still live inside the stories I first found myself in

The more I hear their words

The more they're inked in my skin

I guess we glimpse eternity when we begin at the end

But closure's a fickle friend

It doesn't feel like I'm ten years away from 17

Wasn't it just yesterday you said to me

That the life I'm living now is right in front of me?

But here I am feeling 27

It doesn't feel like I'm ten years away from in between

Innocence and the antithesis you believe sets you free

'Cause the life I'm living now is right in front of me

And here I am feeling 27teen

Where will you go, my glow and shadow?

Will you send me out but still lead me home?

Where will you go, my glow and shadow?

Will you send me out but still lead me home?

Where will you go, my glow and shadow?

Will you send me out but still lead me home?

Where will you go, my glow and shadow?

Will you send me out but still lead me home?

It doesn't feel like I'm ten years away from 17

Wasn't it just yesterday you said to me

That the life I'm living now is right in front of me?

But here I am feeling 27teen
