lyrics

(one two three four!)

Everyone promised nineteen would stop hurting by now
I am twenty-three and it hurts in a quieter font
Which is somehow more insulting than the loud version
(loud version!)
At least the loud one made good songs

I have a job and a plant and a routine (a routine)
And a very specific grudge I take everywhere

Twenty-three! Twenty-three!
(twenty-three)
Still furious, just with better posture
Twenty-three! Twenty-three!
Nobody warned me it gets tidy, not gone

Saw your name on a wedding invite for somebody else's wedding
Sat with that for a week like it was an assignment
Then went to the wedding and had a genuinely nice time
(nice time!)
Growth is so boring. I hate how much I liked the cake.

Here's the actual update:
I'm okay. That's it. That's the whole bridge.
It's not a good ending for a song, but it's true.
(BAND EXPLODES)

Twenty-three! Twenty-three!
(twenty-three)
Still furious, just with better posture
Twenty-three! Twenty-three!
Nobody warned me it gets tidy, not gone

(twenty-three!)
