Songtext zu '27 Club' von Jazzie Young

1, 2, 3!
Happy birthday to you

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

Then I don't really know where to start
But I felt it that like a shock to my heart
Sense of threat for what's to come
But Someone told me this when I was Twenty-one

Now I'm almost thirty
Where the past two years go
My mind is stuck at twenty-five
Before the world went cold
And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date
Cause no one wants to grow
Cause I'm almost twenty eight

Men and I'll show you all around
There's an ex-essential crisis on your left
And you're new best friend is your therapist
So too young to truly understand
But to old to be considered into mend
It's all getting a little mad
Where's the wisdom Where's the peace
I was promised to succeed

Now I'm almost thirty
Where the past two years go
My mind is stuck at twenty-five
Before the world went cold
And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date
Cause no one wants to grow

And I wonder if the pressure ever stops
To be effortless and everything
And if the sense of self is worth the pain
When you're yesterday's news

Now I'm almost thirty
Where the past two years go
My mind is stuck at twenty-five
Before the world went cold
And they tell me to hurry up like I'm going out of date
Cause no one wants to know and want to grow
Cause I'm almost twenty eight

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

They said welcome to the 27 club
It's hard for us to do what we love
It's easier just to pretend
Someone told me this when I was twenty-one
