23

I'm fading away off some kind of drug

Maybe it's lust, maybe it's love

I know I said I'd straighten out a week ago

I'm feeling though, 'bout to reach my peak, you know

The city's got me falling off

I'm fading away, I'm losing my head

I know you said leave but fuck what you said

'Cause you've been steady, crawling on your knees again

You need a friend and I've been on the pills again

Baby's only twenty-three

Dancing under lights since she was seventeen

Her brain's flooded with ketamine

High from everybody, low from self-esteem

It's selfish but she never sleeps

Honestly, she needs a little sympathy

Look what's gotten into me?

But baby's only twenty-three

Baby's only twenty-three

I'm caught in the buzz

Another one down, I'm pushing my luck

The future's never looked so bright, it's blinding me

It's hard to see, I'm swimming through dopamine

Your body looks like heaven and

I wanna give up, I just wanna leave

I'm floating away, I'm caught in the breeze

But she's been so dramatic with these paragraphs

Her broken heart, chemicals can mend it fast

Baby's only twenty-three

Dancing under lights since she was seventeen

Her brain's flooded with ketamine

High from everybody, low from self-esteem

It's selfish but she never sleeps

Honestly, she needs a little sympathy

Look what's gotten into me?

But baby's only twenty-three

Yeah, baby's only twenty-three

I can't believe this is happening

What did I do? What did she do to me?

This isn't true to me, she's quite acute it seems

Now I'm seeking therapy, she won't be there for me

Mending my brain again, please don't give up on me

This hurts tremendously

How will this end for me? Deal with this happening

Deal with this

Fuck it she's dead to me

I'm on her frequency

I know the shit that she's thinking

I know the shit that she's thinking

I'm on her frequency

Baby's only twenty-three

Dancing under lights since she was seventeen

Her brain's flooded with ketamine

High from everybody, low from self-esteem

It's selfish but she never sleeps

Honestly, she needs a little sympathy

Look what's gotten into me?

But baby's only twenty-three

Baby's only twenty-three
